Door hinge alignment pins?

[ToddReynolds]

I picked these up at the Bronco show in Pigeon Forge last year. The pin that Ford includes has to be removed and you only get one. These are designed to stay installed and work great. I have a 2 door so didn't have to buy 4. I struggled getting the doors back on without scratching the paint and these alignment pins definitely helped and are much easier since you don't have to take them off.

Just seeing if anyone has an opinion on these alignment pins I found on Amazon. It sounds good to me but kind of concerned it only has 2 reviews. Thoughts ? Thanks

Looking forward to read how others feel the door install process is improved by using this product.
Having the guide pins in place at all times is nice but I think this is solving a bigger issue for those of us that struggle w/ the door installation.

Last fall after installing my doors for the winter (and failing multiple times during the install) it dawned on me that the problem is that the guide pin is too short.

Single person install, I come in at a slight angle to get the lower hinge over the guide pin with little problem but then when I lift just a bit to get the upper hinge in place the lower hinge comes off the guide pin. Elongating the guide pin should solve this problem. Not even sure if this company realizes that it's also solving this issue.

After this last time installing doors I went out and bought an M8x1.25x45mm bolt (cost $2 for 2 bolts). Cut off the bolt head and was looking forward to testing in the spring. This product beat me to it.

Product is also sold as a two pack, although they don't make it very easy to find (also not on sale):

It's this cone thing (ignore red circle). The cone threads into the hinge helping to align, then you remove it. Should be in the black pouch kit with rachet etc.

Fyi, on your website when I try to select 4 door and add to cart, it only puts the 2 door in the cart. Tried several times, you may want to have a look to see if something is not working right on the site.
