Well, when I bought my car the doors were sagging. I replaced the hinge pin on the drivers side but couldn't do the passenger side. On the drivers side I just used my dremel and cut off the end of the pin, because the factory pins were pressed on instead of the snap rings that are on the after market ones. On the passenger side the end that is pressed on is facing down while the driver side is facing up. I can't get my dremel into to space on the passenger side so does anyone have an easy way to cut or knock the pin out? Its the lower one that I can't get to.
I also put in a link to a pic of my car, and my jeep. Let me know if the link doesn't work. :nice:

I used a drill bit and drilled the center of the pin and just kept using bigger bits till i was able to cut the pin in half with a chisel. then i just pushed both pieces out and poped the new ones in. Its the only way to fix it since the hinges dont come off.
