Tip re. door hinge replacement 200

Thanks for the tip. I did not loosen the top hinge, so the door remained stable with the lower hinge removed. I was afraid where would not be enough space between the door and hinge pillar to fit the replacement hinge. The jack rotated the door upward about the top hinge and took care of that problem.

If one needed to do a door replacement, your adapter would be almost indispensable. I cannot imagine manhandling/aligning a complete door with both hinges loose!
