Mustang Door Parts Needed...Again

Yesterday, I was alerted by the body shop that I needed a lower door hinge pin for the Mustang. They are currently readying the door for installation and apparently I was sent two upper hinge pins. It was a little confusing as I called my parts supplier and they said that the pins are usable for the upper and lower hinges.

So today I called the body shop and got more details. The lower pin needs a Door Tension Check Arm and Door Hinge Roller & Pin.

I ordered the parts and requested that they be express mailed to me.

I wish the body shop told me of this long ago when they told me of the hinge pins. Jeez. At least I have a good supplier of parts for a 1989 Mustang.

Well, at least I know that the car is being worked on and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
