What It Helps Fix

• Door sag that causes the door to sit low or uneven
• Binding or sticking at the hinge during opening and closing
• Poor latch alignment that makes the door harder to close
• Excessive hinge play from worn pins and bushings
• Noise or looseness from deteriorated hinge hardware

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle position before ordering, since fitment varies by front upper, front lower, and front applications. Compare the original hinge pin and bushing dimensions to the listed measurements before installation. Proper hinge support and alignment checks are important after replacement so the door closes evenly and the latch engages correctly. Part number 703-273 is listed for specific-fit applications only, including Dodge Ram and Dakota models shown in the fitment data.
