2005 Nissan Armada rear glass hinge replacement

[@EJ-tx2zs]

My hinges broke a few days ago at Lowes. Thanks for this video I’m attempting to swap my hinges out tonight!!

[@jparker9320]

Worked great and while I replaced the hinges I was able to replace the third little. I didn't realize those plugs had screws. Thanks a lot Mike!!

What is the best way to align the glass when reinstalling hinges?

[@MasaCheez]

You're awesome. Thanks man!

[@davidderfus3462]

Hey Mike, GREAT video. I am changing my hinges this weekend. I had had 1 replaced a few years ago, but I am changing it myself this time, and was wondering how long it took to complete ?

Snap, Crackle, Pop!!!! Thanks Man!

[@fa3556]

Thanks. Made it a piece of cake for me.

Good looking out my brotha!

I am wondering where you bought the replacement hinge. I can't even find them on Nissan's website.

[@mikelangston9034]

I bought them at dealer, but they are available on web. 90321-7S000 Driver side hinge. 90320-7S000 Passenger side hinge. I hope this helps.

[@alip8022]

Thank you very much!

[@eightfooticeman]

Do the hinges come with the mounting bolts that go through the glass? Thanks

[@mikelangston9034]

Yes

[@willhuerto3850]

Ebay, where you can get anything. Anything... .. .

[@jackfax2006]

Mike, I have the 2007 Armada. For the life of me, I cannot figure out why you have to take the cover off inside to see the six screws you identify. Can you elaborate?

[@mikelangston9034]

You have to remove the cover on the inside to get to the bolts that loosen the plastic cover (where third brake light is) enough to get access to the hinge bolts. You're not removing the whole plastic assembly, just prying it up enough to remove hinge screws. I hope that this helps.

[@jackfax2006]

@@mikelangston9034 I did that and stopped. It all looks so simple to do but I just know I will screw it up. To make matters worse, the REPLACEMENT LIFTGATE GLASS LIFT SUPPORTS were broke on the bottom on one side so now I have to replace them. I did not read down on your posts here to see the link to the NissanPartsDeal.com I bought the OEM part for the hing for $124. I think it wouldhave been cheaper on your site.

[@mikelangston9034]

@@jackfax2006 It sounds like you're breaking it but its just the threads on the screws popping against the metal when you are prying it up.

[@jackfax2006]

@@mikelangston9034 I just need to be able to see those screws to loosen that is why I asked why I needed to remove the panel on the inside. I really can't see up there where the screws are.

[@Shane23Armada]

Mine happened yesterday the screw was corrosive

[@philb707]

I dont know why Nissan didnt just use a 10mm nut on the bolts. Its the most universal size nut. SMH. Video helped anyway thanks

[@luciofernando10]

That whole glass dismounted in my hand suddenly today at Walmart, hitting the asphalt.😱😱😱 Lucky the glass didn’t break.😰😰😰

[@93mustang]

Lucky me, my 2004 Armada doesn't have those three holes to access the bolts along the bottom.

[@mikelangston9034]

That year is exactly the same. Not sure what issue you are experiencing.

[@93mustang]

Should be, but it isn't. The three holes, you call 4, 5, and 6 (at the 0.40 mark) (and the three caps you mention at 0.31) are not there on mine. Mine only had two holes to access two nuts (1 and 3) The rest of the points were secured with plastic studs that make the popping sound when you pry the plastic trim piece on the outside off. Might be something they changed from the 2004 to the 2005 model years.

[@metalliholic]

@@93mustang yea same here. I got the hinges off because the bolt just melted off but now I can’t figure out how to run the bolt from underneath. It’s covered when looking from within the door

[@metalliholic]

Never mind I’m an idiot lol

[@TeTenotePlays]

Soo helpful

[@daved3633]

Just happen to my wife , she lift the glass, to put her shopping bags in , Bammm. broke off , lucky the gas actuators save the glass from falling..

[@luciofernando10]

Same just happened with me at Walmart. Got some scratches, but lucky it didn’t break.
