How do you fix a sagging door on a 1998 jeep grand Cherokee?

Answer 1

1) Disconnect the wiring to the door. There is a torx screw holding it in.

2) Have a buddy hold up the door while you take out the 4 bolts holding it on.

3) Lay the door paint side down(on some soft stuff so you don't scratch it).

4) Grind off the cap on one end of the pin.

5) After it is gone, Tap out the pin.

6) Replace pins with part number 38422 from Advance Auto Parts.

The pin for the top hinge has to go in from the bottom.

Here I ran into a problem which turned out to be great. I sent my brother

to Advance to get the part. The guy at the counter handed him a 38423

instead. This part is for Dodge Trucks. This part luckily has a clip to hold the

pin in. The 38422 part that is for the ZJ does not. So I used 38423 on the

top hinge, and 38422 on the bottom.

7) Re-hang the door, and re-connect the wires.

8) Use white lithium grease on all the hinge parts to get it swinging like new.
