| Fix for Sagging Doors |
 |
 |
A lot of Thunderbirds share the common problem - saggin doors. One of the ways to fix this is to replace the hinge pins.
The best way to prevent this is to make sure that your striker plates (the pins that your door latches to in the rear, furthest from your hinge) have a piece of plastic (sort of a sleeve) around them.
This piece of plastic minimizes vibrations and makes sure that your door remains at the right height while closed. Unfortunately, this plastic sleeve wears out pretty quickly, so (after you replace the hinge pins) you'll want to make sure that you keep an eye out and not let the plastic sleeves wear out.
You can either buy new striker plates from a Ford dealer or go to an auto parts store and just buy the sleeves.
