    Door Hinge Pivot Arrangement?

    Does have anyone have a picture or part number of their door hinge pivots? I assume it is a stepped bolt like the ones used for the hood hinges, but couldn't find any bolts like that for the door hinges. I tried a normal bolt with nut and washer but the diameter was smaller then the hole in the hinge allowing movement by just leaning on the door.

    Any pictures of the bolts used your setup or the part numbers you may have used or ordered, is appreciated!!

    Thanks,

    Squid

    The door hinges use the same SS shoulder bolts and bronze bushings as the hood hinges. They are 3/8" Diameter x 1/2" Long Shoulder, 5/16"-18 Thread Size. Pretty common size. A well stocked hardware store may have them. If not they're available in multiple variations from McMaster.
