  • The driver door and right rear door hinges were both creaking and popping for the last couple of years and I finally decided to try changing them. I could not find a video of recent Durango hinges being changed. Only video of a Charger with the same hinge and they took off the front wheel, and wheel well liner and still had difficult access. No way would Dodge engineer hinges that required such an involved process to change.
    I replaced the rear door hinge while the rear door was closed and accessed the hinge from the opened front door. The drivers door I had to change with the door open. I used a hydraulic jack to hold up the back of the door while the front was held by a loosened upper hinge.
    OUTLINE ORIGINAL HINGES ON CAR FRAME AND DOOR WITH A SHARPIE OR SIMILAR BEFORE YOU LOOSEN THEM. THIS WILL AIDE INSTALLING NEW HINGES IN CORRECT LOCATION SO DOOR WILL NOT REQUIRE ALIGNMENT.
    In this video I talk you thru what I did to change both hinges after I changed them. I was not sure I was going to be successful, plus I did it alone so I had no way to deal with the phone to shoot the video. I am not a RUclips pro. I only post these videos to help others who have similar problems.

    Thank you Mark! I'm glad you posted this. I'm getting ready to change my driver side front lower hinge, and like you, could only find wheel-well access videos.
    Your verbal description was enough for me to figure out how I'm going to tackle this. My Deep Cherry Red Crystal Pearl paint arrives in a couple of days, and then I'll be ready.
    2014 Dodge Durango Citadel - it IS a great SUV! Definitely worth maintaining it, Even at 10+ years old.
    😊
