    Man, that's a new one for me. Here I thought that was only a problem on old '60's and '70's vehicles. There are bushing kits available from the likes of NAPA, CarQuest and others for that very problem, but I'm thinkin' you're gonna have to take some micrometer or dial caliper measurements to get the right size for this application. Best of luck, I'm sure there is a fix available!

    I didn't have your problem but I did have the upper hinge on the rear door tear loose from the door.

    Of course, I did it to meself since I was running with the full size spare on the rear door with no added support.

    BOL with the repair.
