Replacing Door pin.....

[whitehead]

So I highly doubt this has been posted yet, and even if it does I can't search on this computer for some reason. That or im an idiot..... Probably the later. Anywho, I was wondering if anyone had some information on how to replace my back driver side door pin. Its a small pin that moves as you open and close the door. My car is 10 years old and has now worn through, so closing it is a real bear, and makes alot of noise.....

So am I removing the whole door to get at it? Or is there a way to slide it out and then slide a new one in? And where can I get a new pin?

I might be able to get some pics tomorrow. Any help would be appreciated.

its been posted before.

your best bet is to replace the whole hinge, not just the pins.

i bet the door sags, so either replace the whole hinge or give me 60$ and ill fix the hinge and pin

Where would be my best bet to finding a new hinge then? And is replacing a door hinge that hard? Cause from a glance it looks like a real simple 1-2 bold off bolt on process.

stealership 112$ish, it is just support the door with a jack wrapped with a towel if you do it
