Sumo door hinge bolt made easy

[David Horsnell]

I hope I'm not teaching Grannies to suck eggs (as the saying goes) but I tohught I would post this incase it helps someone.

Instead of using individual nuts and bolts to fix the door to the hinge, use the bolt panel that fixed the gearbox crossmember on your Sierra / Granada to the floor on the donor. Each mounting (there are two per donor) comprises two 8mm studs on a plate that is ideal for the hinge as it enables you to tighten the bolts from the outside of the door without having to get your hand inside the door which might muck up the alignment.

It worked for me, and luckily I'd stripped a Sierra and Granada and so was able to use the four mounts to do both doors.
