edit - Jane beat me too it.

These are awesome and cheap! They just slip onto the door frame. Not permanent. No tools required to put it up, either.

They even sell them at Target, here. $29.

Pullovers aren't really a good substitution for chins/pulldowns. It's mostly a pec exercise, but you get some back in there.

I would try to get the chinning bar, but until then do some extra db rows with a different set/rep/grip scheme.
