Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3

a week ago I went to close the door and it didn't shut right. as I checked it out I found that the hinge pin on the lower hinge had fallen out. some idiot put the hinge pin in from bottom with the nut on top. installed that way if the nut comes off the pin falls out which is exactly what happened here. installed the opposite as it should be if the nut comes off it will fall but the pin will remain in the hinge allowing normal door function. I found the hinge pin down in the abyss and reinstalled. its just a pin but aligning the 3 holes by myself was fiddly. im glad its all back in and working great. I also adjusted the fast idle. ive never messed with it and now that its cold it needed a small adjustment. all good now.
