I want to replace the door hinge pins on the drivers side. Question is how do I remove the original pins? Are there cotter pins or are they welded together? Also I don’t see a spring. If I can remove the old pins this should be any easy job. Thank you in advance.

It’s easier to place a floor jack under the partially open door, and jack up under the door until the door lines up.
