I searched on here and couldn't find any thing related. I have a 81 K10 that seems to need the hinge pins replaced. I have googled the problem and everyone either has the door all the way off or the are cutting the hinge pin in half with a cutting torch lol. Is there not a simpler way to do this?

I like to use the floor hoist to hang and maneuver the door around with.
Using a strap and attaching the strap around the top of the door,if,like so many of these doors has window and door lock components it juz makes it a lot nicer to not have to disconnect all them wires.
OH YEAH,a BFH and a long drift pinch makes the pin removal a cinch,or,should it be a BANG.:bowroflwerd6:

A long drift punch can be made from a piece of round stock steel shafting.
