Dan, when you get the hinges off, soak them down,put them in a vise and take a solid punch and bfh to them, those pins can be stubborn.
Once out, drill to 5/16 and use a stainless bolt.
Worked well for me!
Good job Dan! If your going to use house paint, make sure it's "behr ultra premium", this has the primer in it and rust inhibitors, I've used it with good results. Use a automotive spray gun, thin 10% with water and paint on a warm day.
"Sounds" like a bad day, I hope tomorrow goes better.
If your blowing bulbs check your grounds, install some star washers.
I hate it when I punch myself in the face.:D
