Tailgate Hinges

[‘89Jimmy]

Howdy!
I'm attempting to disassemble the tailgate hinges and replace the bushings. For whatever the reason, the pins just refuse to come out. I can't find a c-clip or anything else that would appear to block it from coming out. Anyone know the secret handshake?

And stamped once assembled to get that retaining bulge on the pin so no hardware is needed.
I don’t think there are bushings in those hinges - just lube with penetrating liquid occasionally.
