Door Hinge Screws [Again]

[BWillis]

I just dropped my car off at the body shop and have a slight problem. When I sent my car off to tbe blasted the doors were removed and the screws lost. Could someone tell me exactly what type and size screws are needed to mount the doors?

I need to pick some up and run them to the shop so they can mount the doors for fitting etc.

Thanks guys!

Chris,

Are you sure that the screws should be tapered? I though the hole was standard requiring a pan head?

Sorry, I just looked at my parts bags and they are phillips pan head with 1/2" of thread, 1/4-28. I'll get them to you for Tuesday. I was thinking of the door strike for the flat heads, but they are short as well. What time do you need them Tuesday?

 

[BWillis]

Chris,

Man I cant thank you enough. Any time will be fine on Tuesday. I think that they have planty to do before mounting the doors.

Ben
