Default Finally fixed my rattling door

I have a 00 sierra extended cab, I ordered a set of hinges and pins from total automotive. It really is the greatest kit out there. Install was a breeze and finally my truck doors doesn't bang or rattle around.

This kit eliminates the need to press the pins or mangle the mounts because it uses threaded pins and locking nylon nuts.

Ran me about $195 because I bought the tool they sell to remove the existing pins. There's also a YouTube vid with the Truck U guys doing the install on an escalade. Anyone out there who's doors are sagging I highly recommend this.

I also wound up putting a set of Denali 20s on her before the summer as well as a ready lift level kit might as well show off.

I bet it will fix your prob bud . New pins and bushings are inexpensive to try first though .

My rear door was also sagging because the previous owner broke the latch on the bottom I also replaced that and the doors are fixed. A good way to test it is to open the door and push up on it, if the door moves you know it's the pins, if the truck moves it's the latch.
My driver door used to sit on top of the rear door now it's all aligned perfect, night and day difference.

Thanks for the compliments. Next mod are the ZO6 brakes, yellow of course!
