ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a hinge repair assembly for correcting wear in the lower hinge of an automotive vehicle door, which wear occurs because of extended opening and closing of the door, with the result that the hinge pin hole (or holes) in the lowermost hinge ear (or ears) becomes ovalized and the door sags out of alignment with its striker and latching plates. The repair assembly includes a bearing block that is insertable in the space between the door ears and between the door edge and the hinge pin. The block is an upright groove that receives and forms a bearing surface for the hinge pin and a pair of ramp-faced members lying one at each side of the block and cross-connected screws which, when tightened, cause the block to ride forwardly on the ramp faces of the members to improve the bearing relation of the block to the hinge pin and restoring the hinge pin to its original position forwardly in the ovalized hole.
