I need bushings on a barn door hinge on my 99 Tahoe. Where can I get them? The parts stores list for front door hinges. Thanks
 
Found out by the dealer that the hinges are the same from a 95-96 van as well. Those are at the parts stores. Tried poundin g the pin out to try to save it but no luck. So I'll have to cut the pin in pieces. Didn't want to repaint the hinge or pin. Oh well.
 
Parts stores didn't have the pins. I bought pins and bushing at the dealer. I had to cut the old pins to get the door off. Then I had to use a small pointed bar to get the old bushing out. What a pain that was. Now the hard part was to get the pin tops out of the hinge. I pounded very hard and it did not budge. So I used a die grinder with a cutting wheel and put a slice in the hinge so I can open the hinde just enough for the pin top to be tapped out. Just need to weld the hinge now. Grind the weld and get some touch up paint and good as new.
