Mine were a bitch to get off even with a toll. I used some pliers and a hammer for one door + LOADS of WD40

WD 40, mole grips, a big hammer and elbow grease. It is do-able ive done it before. Might need new pins though if you wreck 'em!

I took mine off with the special tool, came off fairly easily with the help of a coating of wd40!
leant Alex the tool an he didn't get on with it think Will has it atm

I think mine were as good as welded on so the tool/me wasnt up for it.
Normally the tool works great as i have removed doors before using one

1 of my hinge pins had snapped so the tool couldnt go through, so i took an angle grinder to it :twisted: :twisted:

What 'tool' is that.

I tried once and its a complete tw*t of a job.

If there is a magic wand that does it where do you get them from?
