If you can measure the gap with some filler gauges I would be more than happy to turn down your pins. Unfortunately you would have to send them back.After slacking for a year I started my project today. The hood pins went pretty smooth and I just need to find a plastic washer to take up a little gap.

Yes, I agree.I drilled mine out from the center. Samll, medium, large and then banged it out with a dowl pin

Please keep in mind that none of these stamped factory hinge frames are exactly the same. I tried to pick a measurement that is a average across the board.
No worries, Just let me know if there’s anything I can do to help.Maybe next winter, thanks for the offer. By no means am I disappointed with your pins they are great and removed the slop in the hood. I will get the windshield pins in as well but I had to walk away yesterday.
I had the same problem. I’ve had an extra set of windshield hinges kicking around and thought I would try to remove the broken pins.Unfortunately my windshield hinge isn’t going to be so easy. I’ve been thinking the drivers side hinge pin was broken and it was. I was able to get one side out with a 20 ton press but even after heating the other side the hinge started to deform so I stopped. I’m now trying to sort out my next steps since I don’t think the center will be any easier. Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions?

PM SentGood evening, wondering if you have any door pins left?
PM SentHello, was wondering if you might have a set of rear ambulance door pins, hood hinge pins & a set of windshield pins for a ‘78?
Yes I am still making these.Hi, you still making these? I need windshield and door hinge pins. These look great!
The last time I put my windshield down it was kind of tough. Then when I put it up it wasn't aligned right!With the colder months upon us, what a great time to replace those nasty hinge pins and bushings.
Stay safe my friends.
