I got a hinge today
I got that! :)
PM sent !!!
Still looking for this hinge. If we can stay around $45, I'd like to get both. Bracket material isn't important as long as the pins are still intact, and they aren't twisted or have damaged threads. Thanks.
seems like you need a insert "PEMNUT",, that will fix the thread issue if thats the only issue you have
That's the only issue. The threads are stripped on the driver side. I replaced the passenger side already. What is that "PEMNUT" you speak of? I was trying to keep the factory style bolts, but open to options.
"think threaded rivit,,,
you insert it into the hole and when it is tighted,, it sorta spreads out crimping itself in place.
they do sell similar types at lowes in the hardware drawers, i think lowes calls them insert anchors.
actually,, what you will find readily available just about anywhere is a "JACK NUT"
you just insert it in the hole, then add your bolt and it anchors itself as well.
now you have just replaced the old threads with new ones.
you just need the right size jack nut that fits your bolt.
I will check into that. I will replace the hinge when I can get one, but until then, that seems like a good option. Thanks.
vinne, if you give me the go ahead, I can hit the pick and pull by my house. they show 6 cougar birds. I'm sure I can come up with two good brackets. ill get them to you for my cost plus shipping.
Sounds like a plan. There was another guy on NATO who said he had some, but I haven't got any idea when he can get them, and I need them as soon as I can get them so I can get my trunk lid tight and to seal correctly.
just tell me how much. They shouldn't cost much to ship. They really aren't that big. Thanks again. I appreciate your help. If you need anything, I'll do my best for you.
got my kids tomorrow.
ill hit the yard Tuesday and make sure its still there. if it is, ill shoot ya a pic and pick them up Wednesday. can't promise a price, but I'm sure I could get them for $40ish range (shipped)
Thanks a lot.
Still searching.
I was going to get them for you the other day but thought you had them coverd ....
Nope. Not covered yet. LOL
Ok ill see when I can go back I just did not want to step on anyone's deal lol
There's no deal to step on. Just trying to keep the costs down though. You know how it is. LOL. I only need the hinge, not the rest of the mounting structure.The passenger side I swapped in had the pin (pivot pin/ retains the actual hinge in place in the car) and that was all. That worked great. It's actually not very big.
Ok ill grab one if I go back any time soon
Thanks!!!
sorry vinne, I forgot all about this. if you don't have them covered this weekend ill check out the yard for you.
I just need one soon. I've been looking for about 6 weeks total, and no luck.
THIS THREAD IS DONE !!!!!!! I GOT A HINGE !!!!!!! Thanks for trying guys.
