Dorman's Door Hinge Pins are sold separately-saving you the time and cost of replacing the entire hinge. Review: This is a nice design, potentially better than the original. - This is a nice design, potentially better than the original. Seems stronger as well. Time will tell. IT was purchased from desertcart.com LLC, not a random reseller. Our original roller SHEERED off from the pressure of the spring. I can only assume a factory defect since mere stress caused it to break. It's been on my to-do list for 6 months and I finally got together with my body shop guy to get it installed over the weekend. We anticipated 20 minutes but it took an hour and a half. Part of that was due to tool problems. - NOTE: I had a misconception about this item. I THOUGHT that it was a Hinge pin, but it IS NOT. When you replace THIS "roller" pin, both hinge pins remain in place and you DO NOT need an additional person to hold the door. This was indeed the part that I needed, but it does not seem to support the weight of the door at all. THIS pin is solely for the purpose of holding the door in its detent locking positions, EXCEPT, it also appears to affect the door lock engaging correctly. We were having a problem with the door wanting to come open while driving which seems to have been resolved with the replacement of this roller pin. - The actual installation....STEP 1...My mechanic decided to make 2 CUTs in the old pin with a sawzall (tight fit). First he cut the middle of the pin, then he cut the top mushroom part. The pieces, unfortunately fell right into the fender (rattle,rattle,rattle). He took a couple of bolts out, one bolt inside the hinge area and another below, and the pieces fell right out. Trying to fish it with a magnet was useless. This is also a good time to clean out your drain area of pine needles and debris. - Step 2... The top post fit easily into the hinge. We had little success trying to hammer the replacement back in. So, he got his grinder out and shaved a bit of the edge off of the ridges on the bottom section of the Pin. He just kind of grazed the teeth a bit, a very light touch. Viola! The pin started and required just enough hammering with a 1/4" extension to lock it up into place. That was a key to success. Then, he installed the C-clip and we tried it out. It was perfect. He re-assembled the fender bolts and I was good to go! The door now shuts and locks properly and the lock no longer seems to get caught on the stud. The door now stays in its alternate opening angles. Apparently there was no problem with my actual hinge pins at all. - In conclusion: Nice Product, Nice price. - I do sense a bit of stress on the pin when first opening the door, so I intend to grease it up. Review: 1995 GMC SIERRA PICK UP - UPDATE: I purchased another pin from another source claimed it will work, it did not. These fatter pins are for newer models. The only source I have found but not ordered for a 1995 GMC is from GMC parts online. But they sell in 5 packs over $100.00 I do not need five. So the search goes on. Don't bother ordering these older pins are scarce. Do your research narrow down to your specific vehicle. They look the same online but are fatter, I think they enlarged them because the older ones broke often. 1st review; Pins do not fit.

YTube videos mentioned having to grind down the ridge grooved area at the top of the pin section that presses into the steel hinge. I can verify this as I had to chuck the pin into a drill and use a file to smooth off the ridges. They increase the diameter enough to make the pin almost impossible to install without excess force. Filing off the ridges still leaves the pin diameter large enough to require hammer force to install. There is no way the pin can fall out since it also has a c-clip at the top. Just a heads up on the ridged section that will need to be filed or ground down. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/14797324-dorman-38433-front-upper-door-hinge-roller-pin](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/14797324-dorman-38433-front-upper-door-hinge-roller-pin) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-11-06*
