Milano Door swap

Post by SamW »

Anyone ever replace the doors on a Milano, I need to swap some out, is it easier to pull the hinge pins or remove the whole hinge?

yeah, I had to use the trusty old tiger saw to get the door off my parts car...
I recommend a GOOD QUALITY allen bit and one of those air guns you change wheels with.
Use a seriously large hammer or a mallet and give that allen screw a good couple of whacks before you try the air gun.

Thanks, so go after the allen bolts as apposed to taking the pins out? I have already returned one craftsman allen head socket to Sears for a free replacement! I will hit them with some good "Knock Loose" and the get an impact after them. Thanks!
