Title: 94 door pins
Post by: Irish_Alley on October 03, 2010, 02:17:00 am
Well I went to replace my door pins on my 94 the other day due to it clunking if I hit a bump hard enough. the bottom was a piece of cake but the top the door spring is in the way and I don’t want to try to knock it out and not be able to put it back on place how are you supposed to do the top ???

That tool is worth its weight in gold. Just don't try and compress the spring with the tool. It strips the bolt. First two I had this happened to. Then the Mac tool guy told me this. " Put the tool in the spring, then compress it with a vice, then tighten the nut up ".
