Door hinge bushings
I had my doors off all last week, finally some nice weather.
When I was putting the passenger door back on I noticed the plastic hinge bushings were really worn down. I'm afraid if they get much worse they'll go metal to metal and start peeling paint off the hinges.
I went to the stealership today and they want $19 for EACH bushing
Are they out of their ****ing minds?
They want me to bail Chrysler out myself.
Has anyone found these anywhere cheaper?

my hinges have/had some sort of plastic spacer (like a washer). I didn't look close enough to see if it was a bushing in the barrel of the hinge. What I saw was pretty worn out.
$19... per hinge? per door? do you have a part number?

I just posted a thread about this exact thing. I just removed my doors for the first time and saw them. Installing the soft doors which have different sized pins tore a couple of them up. I'd like to have new ones for when I go back to hard doors.
55395703AD was the part # I used, and yes, my dealer also quoted $19. Think I could have them machined for less.
Somebody must have them.
