Hinge pins

[NB Lola]

I went to open the top of the side hatch (roof cover) and one of the two hinge pins decided not to work with me and sheared off.

 

Now then I am not sure how to extracate it except by drilling - carefully. Tried the usual WD40 and oil left for a while. Tried using another pin to dislodge it.

 

Any ideas on removing it?

 

When I do, where can I source replacement pins?

 

Thanks

It's a bit desparate, but you may be able to loosen the rust around the pin by knocking it into the socket.

This place manufacturers all sorts of hinges in Tamworth and is very helpful. They may be able to help re pin.

Nopt what you want to hear, but......

 

WE resorted to the drill.

try drilling a fine pilot hole into the pin, and then using a screw extractor

the hinge will almost certainly be found within the Albert Jagger website. As for saving the hinge i would give it up and get new hinges welded on. they are held in tight enough to break off - do you think you will be able to get them out?
