My hinges are like the rest of the tailgate hinges on these Blazer/Jimmys, worn out. I see on LMC that you can buy new pins and bushings. I have searched here and across the internet and have yet to find any information from anyone that's actually done it. Anyone tried it? It looks like they'd be similar to the door hinges. I've also thought of letting them soak in bucket oil. One is stiff to the point it sounded like trumpet when I opened the gate and both are loose/sloppy/rickety.
