Couple of questions, that I hope havent been asked too much...

1) Saggy doors. All of mine sag a bit, but the driver side door is pretty bad. New door hinges are a bit pricey, is there a way to tighten them up or anything?

2) Heat from the floor. It melted part of the womans purse, and she got a little pissed (guess "louie" means its good?). I was originally thinking about doing a spray in bed liner for the entire floor... now I am not so sure that is the best of ideas, unless I can figure out another way to combat that heat.
 
doors: hinge bushings from help section at local auto parts store

floors: obviously insulation of some sort. do you currently have bare metal floors? bedliner would help some, but not sure of its insulating properties. easy fix, don't put purse on floor :whistle:
 
Hah, I told her the same thing. It has carpet in there, but there is a hole in it on the passenger side, so a little patch of bare metal. I didnt know if this was a common problem, but I guess its one I will have to deal with if I go the bedliner route (figure I cant be the first to go this way...)
 
He could put a heat sheild above the problem under the body, right? Like the stock ones above mufflers?
 
my tranny hump gets pretty hot too. never bothered me. my feet just sweat more. throw some inexpensive heat shield under the carpet there. should help sound from tranny too.
