How to Maintain and Fix a Hood Hinge on Dodge Caravan?

The first step to servicing the hood hinge is to remove both the hood and wiper unit. At each hole for bolts and hinges, mark the location with a grease pencil or other useful reference marker to help when assembling the cabinets. After that, take out the pivot bolt inside the hood hinge, next remove the bolts that mediate the body portion of the hood hinge and the front fender flange and then detach the hinge from the car. Paint the new hinge if the painting wasn't done when you received it. Position the body half of the hood hinge on your vehicle and place the bolts through both holes into the vehicle's front fender flange, tightening them to no more than 8 N.m (70 in.lbs.) torque. Drill the pivot bolt into the body half of the hood hinge and tighten it to a torque of 28 N.m (21 ft.lbs.) Line up all the marks, put down the hood and fasten all the bolts on the wiper unit. The hood should sit 4 mm (0.160 in.) away from the front fenders and lie close and even with the tops of the fenders. Make sure the hood height is right by placing shims under its hinge until it fits and secure the bolts after using 13.5 N.m (10 ft.lbs.) torque.
