Hi folks, need some expert advice on how to take out door hindge pins without taking off the complete hindge and pounding the hell out of the hindge and door .I think I saw a special puller tool in the shop manual that was used for this job.Is this tool still available and used for some other purpose now a days? I oiled up the pin and tried to use a punch on it and it was a no-go.(its not a rusted up hindge) I wanna put a hindge mirror on the door. THANKS to you who help.

Tom, I used a heavy duty C clamp and a socket over the head of the pins and it worked out well. The last thing you want to do is beat on it or heat it up. Someone else may have a better way, but that is how I changed mine..
