I just got an endura pin kit for my front doors on my obs crew cab. Im gonna remove the hinges one at a time and try to get it done this way drilling out the bushing and using a c clamp like a ball joint press to get the new ones in there.
It's tricky. The bolts that connect the hinges to the door are almost impossible to get off with the fender on. Best bet is removing the hinges from the door jamb on the cab but be warned, the metal plates the bolts thread into can fall down into the kick panel and are nearly impossible to get out. I have some video I've not posted yet of my Son and I putting the doors on this truck, and taking video kinda fell apart as we were having such a time getting the door aligned. If you just need to do bushings leave the door on, you will be glad you did!
That is permatex 24125 grease for brake parts and I do not recommend useing it for anything other than it's intended purpose. I use it on a couple items and after 6-8 months it turns into a very sticky brown goo that does not allow things to move freely. I'd use a general purpose grease in the future.
It's Permatex brake grease but I no longer use it for anything other than between brake pads and the caliper bracket. It turns into a glue like substance after a few months. I had to clean out a ratchet i lubed with it as it no longer would switch gears, and the slide on the quill of an antique drill press I rebuilt. I've not messed with this truck in over a year so I'm not sure how well the windows work, but I'd imagine I'll be cleaning it out of the slide. Next time I'll use a quality grease that is not specific to brakes.
That bolt with the socket was a good idea. Learned me something new today❤

Can you make a video on how you took the door off

What kind of grease do you use?

What's the purple grease?

My hinges are so bad there are no old bushings to replace .
