curves.asia 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) I'm looking for door hinge pins for my E30, going to re-adjust and re-align the doors. Does anyone know where I can get these? Thanks Edited January 23, 2013 by curves.asia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Door adjustment/alignment is done by shims The pins themselves are worn but I'm more into adjustments/alignments... so that would be shims no? Haven't done this before so a little bit out my range Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hotwire 352 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 Haven't come across one with worn pins yet, although if they become dry & rusty they could well wear. Yes there are packer shims that slot behind the door mounting bolts. Number of shims will vary - to allow correct door alignment. That said, if the pins are worn & the hinges sag - this will need to be rectified first Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you know if anyone does this? Otherwise I might have to do this myself Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
