72 Door hinge stops - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

stepsider · 06-12-2022, 10:53 AM

The door stops on my 72 don't hold the door open any more. They are connected to the hinge. My question can they be fixed tweaked/repaired or will I have to replace the hinge ? Do they sell the door stop mechanism & Where ?

They can be tweeked with a big flat blade screwdriver.
As-long as your little brake pads things are still in there.

You can buy the pads aftermarket.
I am not aware of the link being sold aftermarket.

No , That's just for the 2 friction blocks and you'll need 4 to do both doors .
