I seen on the diesel page that there is a replaceable greasable hinge for our trucks. Does anyone know if they have a website or anything?

It just basically replaces the pins? I was hoping for some kind of a bracket change. My door was bent because the hinge was not riveted together properly at the factory.

Then I'd have the dealer fix it under warranty if it were mine ...

Oh, the dealer fixed it on warranty. They took a small sledge hammer and bent the hinge so that the stop works. Nice fix, eh? Warranty doesn't mean sh*t. If you want it fixed you got to fix it yourself.
