Rugged Ridge Lower Door Hinges - Black (87-06 Jeep Wrangler YJ & TJ)

August 07, 2019

Part was defective and customer service sucks!

Lower door hinges were so messed up I had to drill out over .060” so brass bushings (that weren’t included) would fit. Windshield hinges came with bushings and door hinge pins wouldn’t fit them either. Had to scrape all of the powder coating off of the hinge pins to fit into brass bushings. I ordered over $1500.00 worth of parts for my Jeep TJ in January for a project. I finally got started on in August. Called Ext. Ter. and was flat out told they couldn’t do anything since the order was over 30 days old. I literally removed the parts from the box one day and discovered parts didn’t work properly and called the next day. What customer service!!! Wasn’t like the parts broke, it was all manufacturer defects! Called Omix ADA (manufacturer of Rugged Ridge parts) and they said to send parts back to Extreme Terrain and buy from Quadratec. I asked why if it’s the same parts from both sellers. I was told because the customer service is much better at Quadratec. Found out he was right. I won’t buy anything from extreme terrain ever again and all my Jeep friends won’t either. Customer service is more important than the product you sell!!!

Not great

They are lighter weight then the OEM. The hole is about .05 larger than the hinge pin and allows the pin to be sloppy in the hole enough that the door side hinge will hit the body. The hole is not round so any of the bushings being sold won't fit unless the hole is bored or reamed round. I doubt a drill will do much more then make a bad part worse. In the end I did not use them on the Jeep. Instead, I'll weld them to some brackets and use them to hang store the doors when the soft sides are on.

As advertised, they are hinges.

They are exactly what was advertised, Lower hinges for which I needed new ones on my 87 YJ. They fit well, the appearance is exactly what I was wanting, a mat finish. I used them in conjunction with some plastic bushings. I had to drill them out for the bushing to fit. I knew that going in.

Good look

Look good. Only complaint is the thickness doesn't match the original hinge so adjustment was kind of a pain. Why are the original so impossible to remove without striping them.

Poor Quality Control

Bought as a set with door hinges and windshield hinges over 300 dollars for hinges you have to sand to put together lower hinges on one side was not round to accept upper door hinge. Spent about 3 hours getting them to accept each other. For the money look else where

Fit nice.

I got the other set that goes with these. It fit together like a glove so I am happy.

Junk

Ordered these with the rugged ridge inserts. Inserts won't fit, but appear to be properly sized. Looking at these you can tell the cylindrical part is not circular. One had chipped paint as well. As expected, my previous review never showed up, showing how some companies keep ratings high.
