Ky. Rider Posted October 13, 2013 #1 Posted October 13, 2013 I lost a hinge pin out of the trunk hinge on my 06. Any suggestions for a replacement and how to secure it? Thanks. Bill
rougeray Posted October 13, 2013 #2 Posted October 13, 2013 Drill bit? Mix some JB Weld and apply to the hinge both sides just enough to prevent bit from vibrating out.
M61A1MECH Posted October 13, 2013 #3 Posted October 13, 2013 Try McMaster Carr here is alink that may help http://www.mcmaster.com/#drill-rods/=ox5u41, this for a "High-Speed M2 Tool Steel, Hardened Undersized Rod, 3.50mm Diameter, 2-7/8" Length" , catalog # 2900A267, $2.82 I did a quick check on the ID of the hinge on my 07, but a little hard to get a real accurate measurement with out pulling the pin out and measuring the pin it self. You may want to pull the other one and measure it to get a more exact measurement. Surely wil be some standard metric size.
djh3 Posted October 14, 2013 #4 Posted October 14, 2013 All we use to do on aircraft was install the pin and squeze the ends of hinge to keep from sliding out. Dont take alot.
