    anyway to remove one hinge at a time on doors to replace pin and bushings with front fenders still on car?

    Or can the pins and bushings be changed without removing hinges?

    I had the bodyshop that painted my car replace the pins & bushings on both doors on my '72 GS. Cost me a couple $100 but well worth it. The owner of the shop had made a tool to perform the task more easily. The hard part is removing & reinstalling the spring.

    back in about 1986, I had the bushings (plastic) and pins replace in the doors of my 1981 cutlass supreme, at the dealers. Cost me $50!
