Cargobay Door Hinge

Lawrie

Super glue should do the trick to get you going .
Worth a try as I have used it to patch up my rubber seals around the cargo door.
Best of luck
Bob

Clarke rubber could have some hinges.
Sikaflex will also do the trick (quick drying)

Don't know your area very well, but if your near Toowoomba Clark may be worth a call

Thanks Bob. Will give Clarke rubber a call this morning. I gaffa taped it on during the storm yesterday to keep the water out. I've found a piece of webbing strap in my "GOOD STUFF" box,and have decided to sicaflex it onto the hinge as a temporary fix. Will still gaffa tape it around as well. Any thoughts on how to get the old hinge off ? I've taken the screws out,but it also has also had sixaflex put on,and doesn't want to come off. Once I get a new hinge,I guess I'll can just force it off. Heading to Rudds Pub at Nobby today. Think it's a little closer to Toowoomba
Will then slip into Toomoomba on Monday. Have a Happy New Year.

Hi
Hinge is called Centreflex, can be purchased from Strutsaustralia.com.au or just Google Centreflex for a supplier.
Is easy to change. Can only buy it in 3 meter lengths and costs about $80 from memory.
Regards
Pete

From memory there are a few screws holding that piece of hinge attached to the van. I do remember belting it with a hammer and chisel to get it off though. When I go over to the house to water today I will have a look to refresh my memory. I have spare (remainder)centreflex here ( Adelaide) but can't get it to you.

I've had the srews out of the van section and had a go lightly. Wasn't game to "get stuck into it" until I manage to get a new one. Thanks for your reply.

Had a door hinge start to split on me back in September coming back from Lawn Hill. I rang bushtracker and gave them the exact measurements (ordered new hinge for both sides) and asked them to post them to Emerald post office where I would pick them up in a few days.
Everything arrived no problem.
Depending on how many tools you normally carry you may be able to do the change on the road but most would need to find somewhere with tools or carry out temporary repairs and do the job when you get home as I did.
Removal of the old hinge is a bit of an effort as they are well glued with Sikaflex but should present no problems. After fitting the new ones I found that both doors would not close fully on the latch side so had to grind the trailing edge slightly so it would latch.
I put this down to the new hinge being not as flexible as the old one and therefore it pushed the door further back than the old one but all is OK now.

Cheers Bill.
