If you're reading, you probably know exactly what im talkin about (door sags when you open it)

I need them put in asap..

Where are you located? Its not the hardest thing to do. The worst part is getting the spring back in. The bushings that the pin slides through are worn out. If you feel like driving to Moyock then I can help you out. Just buy me a burger or something.

You just need a crowbar, a punch, a hammer, some wd40. get the spring out, then spray down the door pins and use the punch and hammer to beat the old pins out.

but you should get a door spring compressor, because getting that spring back in is a mother.

if you cant install them in less than 45 minutes, you suck as an individual. hell, even the old dude here can do a set in about 20 minutes.

a door spring compressor is about 15 bucks, i highly reccommend one.
