Dorman - HELP Door Hinge Bushing P/N:38497
Help a sagging, creaking door swing smoothly on its hinge again with the Dorman door hinge bushing, part number 38376, a replacement bushing measuring .344 in. ID x .490 in. OD x .370 in. height. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1982-1985 Chevrolet Impala, 1982-1983 Chevrolet Malibu and 1982-1988 Chevrolet Camaro; see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list. A door hinge bushing sits between the hinge pin and the hinge so the door can pivot with controlled play. When the original bushing wears, the door can drop, bind or misalign with the latch.
If worn bushings are the cause of door sag or hinge noise, this part replaces them. Inspect the hinge pin at the same time, and follow the vehicle service information for removal and installation.
