All of the door hinges, including the rear door are starting to ooze rusty gunk out which looks awful. I oil them regularly, but it seems that once the internal pin has started to rust, its a constant battle. The cast bits seem ok, and someone has previously fitted stainless bolts.
Can the hinge pin be replaced with something that won't rust, or do I need new hinges complete? 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV 1966 S2a 109 aka Betsy |

Ok cheers. Looks like new hinges complete then. I might try and butcher one to see if it is possible to extract the pin, but as the thread says, probably easier to replace and repaint. 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV
