Important: In order to minimize door realignment, do not remove both door hinges at the same time. Do each door hinge separately, and replace the broken door hinge first.

1. Open and support the door.
2. Clean the mounting surfaces of the hinges with a clean rag and mark the front door hinge locations on each surface with a grease pencil or other suitable marker.



3. Remove the front door. Refer to Front Side Door Replacement .



4. Remove the hinge to pillar bolts and nuts.
5. Remove the front door hinge from the vehicle.

1. Position the front door hinge to the alignment marks on the pillar.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

2. Install the fasteners attaching the front door hinge to the pillar.

Tighten
Tighten the front door hinge fasteners to 26 N·m (18 lb ft).




3. Install the front door. Refer to Front Side Door Replacement .
