Re: door hinge pin and bushing rebuild kit
I can find a pin and bushing kit for every car except a honda. Really frustrating. I don't want to go OEM because I'm sure there is some bushing bore deformation, and I want a kit I have to drill out.

Re: door hinge pin and bushing rebuild kit
wow, krazy to see my old thread pop back up after so long...
If I remember correctly honda never made a kit for this, and most people just resorted to rigging something up.
Im not sure if you buy the whole OEM hinge assembly if it comes with the pin or not. Would assume it does, but then again these cars are starting to get ancient, and parts are being discontinued. I was willing to buy an OEM fuel pump for my DB2, but I couldnt get one
So the best bet is probablly a salvage yard...

Carland Acura in Georgia, USA, carries what appears to be the complete door hinge for about $35 per hinge (2 per door). Not sure about them shipping to Ireland, though.

My 95' Civic Ex, Driver Door has this same issue. I always wondered if drilling out the Pin and replacing with a bolt would work. A mechanic buddy said that when the door starts to sag on a Honda it's time for a new car..

Re: door hinge pin and bushing rebuild kit
I've replaced the door hinges on my driver side. Door sag fixed and the door closes much easier since it doesn't have to deal with aligning as it closes.
In hindsight I probably should have looked at the hinges afterwards to see which one was looser. I guess when you've already spent the money on both, why give a shart.

Holy thread revival... My driver side door has been sagging for years and I guess it's time to fix it..
When you purchase the door hinge does it come with the pin or everything you need?
I might try to do a write-up

Re: door hinge pin and bushing rebuild kit
Yes. The only things you need to buy are the A and B hinges.
I did it the minimally invasive way and only removed the fenderwell liner. If you need to remove the fender, you'd have to remove te frot bumper cover and the side skirt.
It sure would have been easier to adjust the hinge positions if you had a second person to help you test while you tighten/loosen the bolts. Getting it right takes trial and error.

Re: door hinge pin and bushing rebuild kit
I've did it today with ebay pin&bushings kit bought it for something like 13-14$
it's the pins that got wear,bushings are good as new after 19 years and 200.000km and i left them there,sure they are better then this taiwan ****
I have garage but don't have fancy tools,so most of the tools were DIY it took me 5-6hours to change it cause i've took out one hinge and then fucked everything,believe me it's hard to adjust the door,don't even try if u don't have exp.
the best way is to have one to help u and hold the door for u
then u will do it in about 2 hours for both doors and remember to grease them at least 2-3 times in the year they will last forever
