Bob Radford Posted April 5, 2010 Author Share Posted April 5, 2010 might be a stupib bloody question, but that's never stopped me before, - you can see two sides of the pin, a plain one and a serrated one, I'm whacking the plain one, is that right? - the two washers, do you have to take these off first? i am sooooooo p*ssed, one little job turning into a nightmare. Tried hammer and punch, vice, all pigging sorts and they just won't shift, what am I doing wrong? Thanks Bob R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamStirling Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Hi Bob, How are you getting on with this? I tried to knock the pin out of a new britpart TD5 hinge and found that the washers were actually inserts or sleaves which sit inside the pivot pin hole in the door half of the hinge. The pin was jammed solid into the sleeve so needed to be drilled out from both sides. I have a new genuine hinge which looks the same but don't want to destroy it to check. Are your hinges the same?

Litch Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 I still don't understand what is wrong with Genuine hinges? I bought mine new/take-off 10-years ago for £2 each and they still operate perfectly with no signs of wear or rust. The only mainenance they get is a regular squirt with WD40 which keeps them funtioning perfectly and the paint in tip-top condition. Why try to re-invent the wheel?
