Re: Door Hinge Stop / Check Pads

If I remember correctly, it's just the hole that gets smaller toward the center. I struggled with getting the pin out because I didn't realize this and was using a punch initially that was too big to fit through the hole where it necks down.

What a pain, if you use too big of a punch you'll get nowhere but if you use to small of a punch, I assume you end up going inside the pin.

Need a "goldilocks" punch - then still need luck to get the thing to move I think.

I still hear my "maybe I'll install them" parts box calling out to me - ha!

I have the punch at home.
I can check the size after work.

Re: Door Hinge Stop / Check Pads

I did mine years ago so am hazy on some details. I know for sure I didn't remove the door or the hinge. I fought to remove the roll pin until I discovered that although the top & bottom of the hole is 1/4", the roll pin and the central section of the hole is 3/16". You cannot drive a 1/4" drift through that 3/16" section. Use a 3/16" drift and drive it up from the bottom.
