Bloody wind!!

Postby dewalt22 » Wed Feb 01, 2023 11:12 pm

Firstly I would like to introduce my self to the site.
Well today the dreaded happened and the wind got hold of my drivers door and nearly sent it to bloody space, unfortunately now the hinges are knackered!!! Can anybody point me in the right direction to purchase a pair of n/s hinges as I have been told they are on back order from Ford. Not sure how true this is until morning when I call my local branch.
Regards Dan

I had the same last year , bent my arch out aswell so I had to do some roadside panel beating in order to get the door to close again , my door shuts and locks but it has dropped and is rubbing the door step, let me know if you can how much the hinges cost because it's about time I sorted mine out , thanks
