    I did a quick search and couldn't find this so I apologize if it's been posted before. Thought it might help someone. Be careful, though. He says he hasn't voided any warranties but I'm skeptical.

    I have a loose hinge so I'm going to try this to fix it and clean it out in the process. Will also be painting it soon so this will make it much easier.

    A different take on it, although the guy probably used the service manual to do his write-up. It's nice having all the steps on one page.

    Didn't say you had to use it--just putting it out there.
