Thanks pooleo, great pics!

I think I might mic the hole bushing and drill the holes instead... if possible. I hope not to have to, or to minimize the amount of, grinding.
My son just finished gunsmith school and he could do a great job of that. A drilled hole should be straighter and so make contact more evenly with the bushing and maybe last longer.

Nothing against the way you do it, I tend to be over analytical sometimes and it likely doesn't matter on my 14 year old truck but that's me. You should see the transom I am building for my aluminum flat-bottom boat, heh, talk about overkill!

I am glad I had subscribed to this thread and got an email notice. You da man, poolio!

Great write up Pooleo.

Only thing I would add would be a suggestion to do them one hinge at a time.

And a C-clamp with a socket over the head of the pin can work as a press if grinding the head off is too much like work.

And maybe remember to put some grease on them.

Default Re: Door hinge pin and bushing replacement.

I would like to point out how valuable a thread like this is and THANKS TONS for keeping the pics up with this old article.

Who knows how many it has helped.

If you look back in the thread you see I asked about the pics a few years back and funny, I never never got to do the work. I am just now WWW searching again to do the hinges and happened on my forgotten old post.

I had my engine replaced with a used one because mine blew a head gasket, blew a radiator neck, and sat too long with water in the cylinders and heads... sad but true.

When the mechanic showed me the water pump I couldn't believe it, absolutely NO fins, just a disk that would spin. So what caused what in my old motor I am not so sure. All better now so far.

Back in the saddle again!

I see the pic but Norton warns me of a bad site, Trojan I think.
