Subject:
Broken Rear Cargo Door Hinge
(Install Replacement Hinge)
Models:
1992-97 Chevrolet and GMC C/K Suburban and Utility Models with Rear Cargo Doors (RPO ZW9)
Condition
The door side of the hinge may fracture as a result of lack of lubrication, corrosion, or attempts to remove the hinge pin without following the procedure outlined in GM Service Bulletin No. 36-10-14A. The cargo door hinges are welded on in production.
Correction
A bolt on door side of the hinge is now available for service through GMSPO. There are no plans to release the body side of the hinge for service due to feasibility of installation of that side of the hinge.
