door pin install problem
hey guys, i have an 86 t top and yesterday i decided to replace the door pins because the drivers door was sagging when opened and had to be lifted in order to close it. so i got both pins in however on the lower hinge, it doesnt seem to have the bottom hole. when i cut the old pin in half on the bottom, i had to pull up on the bottom piece because i couldnt hit it thru the bottom because it's solid. i dont know if this makes sense. well as a result with the new pin in the bottom it cant go thru because there's no hole. so it fixes the problem for 3 opens and closes and then sags. i cant hit it thru at all to put a cotter pin in. do i need to drill a hole? has anyone had this problem?

question, did you buy the door pins locally or did you go with a kit from one of the sites usually used around here? also, what did you use to support the door while installing it? i need to do this badly. my doors sag a bunch, too.

I got my pins from autozone it ran me 13 bucks for 2 pins and 4 bushings, and I used a jack to support the weight while I got the old pins out then had my buddy hold the door when I moved it out to put the new bushings in
