A few years back a storm blem in with 80mph winds and when I went to open my door the wind caught the bugger like a sail and abut took it off. Ever since then you have to slam the door to shut it or it doesn't close all the way. I would sure like to fix it cause it drives me crazy. If anyone can help me easy to follow instructions would sure be appreciated.

Thanks, Will

First you'll have to determine which part is damaged. was it the hinge, door or pillar. My guess would be the door was was pulled out, where the hinge attaches. For the door or pillar the repair will be the same. Remove the hinges and hammer it, until it is straight. If it is the hinges, get some new ones from a junkyard.

I'm pretty sure it was the hinges. The thing was yanked pretty hard.

Thanks
