Otiswesty Administrator Date registered: Jun 2007 Location: Portland, Oregon Vehicle(s): 463.241, 461.213 Posts: 3004 | Loose door hinge 463 I have a question about this door hinge that appears to be loose on the pin. I am considering buying it as a fixer upper. If anyone has had experience with this either in replacing the pin, or maybe the entire hinge needs replacement. 1997 463 G-class (Hinge.jpg) Attachments ---------------- Hinge.jpg (246KB - 0 downloads) | ||

It's P/N: A.460.723.00.52. Getting the old one out without messing the finish up too badly might take some effort. | ||

I have an extra hinge set from the "new" front door on my G500. Crazy what they are asking for a replacement hinge. Just MB prices I guess. The pin would have to be pressed out with a burly hydraulic press. I could get that done at a machine shop pretty easily. Edited by otiswesty 8/2/2017 11:52 PM | ||
