Description

Help take the slop out of a worn door hinge with the Dorman door hinge bushing, part number 38378 from the Dorman HELP line, a replacement bushing that the hinge pin pivots in. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1979 Ford Mustang, 1987-1991 Ford Country Squire and 1973-1979 Ford LTD. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.

Sized to spec: 0.344 in. inside diameter, 0.490 in. outside diameter and 0.375 in. height.
Direct replacement: designed to replicate the original bushing's fit and function on the listed vehicles.
Hinge positions: cataloged for the front upper, front lower, rear upper and rear lower hinge locations.
Expert support: backed by Dorman's U.S.-based product experts and more than a century of automotive experience.

Door hinge bushings wear from the constant pivoting of the door, and a fatigued bushing lets the pin move loosely in the hinge. Signs a bushing may need replacing include a door that sags or drops when opened, a door that must be lifted to latch, or creaking and popping at the hinge. If a worn bushing is the cause, this Dorman part replaces it. It is made from quality materials and engineered for reliable performance.

Which hinge positions is it listed for?

It is cataloged for the front upper, front lower, rear upper and rear lower hinge positions on the listed applications.

How can I tell if my door hinge bushings are worn?

A door that sags, drops when opened, needs lifting to latch or creaks at the hinge can be a sign of worn bushings. Other hinge or latch problems can cause these signs too, so check the hinge for pin play first.
