Door hinge inspections
Guys I have recently been inspecting my door hinges for my 55 and after rust removal and cleaning the hinges free up pretty loose. I have looked at the pins and there seems to be no wear on the pins. My question is " Do I still need to rebuild them or paint em and let em go?" Just trying to see some of the problems that you guys have came across.

If they work free and don't wobble against the hinge pin axis, they are good to go. Paint them and put them on. Bad ones are easy to spot.
