Simply use a punch and a hammer to pop them out. Have a second person stabilize the door or use a floor jack as support
Remove the inside door panel. Disconnect wire harness from inside of door and slide the harness out of the door. Remove door detent spring with proper tool (can be purchased from your local auto parts store for aprox $10). Support bottom of door with a jack or any suitable device.Remove retaining clips from door hinge pins. Have a friend hold the door upright while you drive out the hinge pins with a long punch and hammer. Once the pins are out the door can be removed. Reverse procedure to install. I would suggest replacing the pins and bushings with new ones. Once again these pins and bushings are available from your local auto parts store for cheap.
you have to lift the door up and use a hammer to hit it
support the door then remove the hinge to door bolts and lift door off.

HAVE SAME PROBLEM,TOOK DRIVER SIDE DOOR OFF AND IT LOOKED TO ME LIKE THE PINS WERE PRESSED IN.AM NOW WONDERING IF THIS IS THE FACT OR IS THERE A WAY TO GET IT OUT. A SPECIAL TOOL OR PRY LOOSE WHAT COULD BE A CAP ON THE BOTTOM OF HINGE.
You need to disconnect the wiring to the electric window, locks, etc.,and the door has to be removed.The hardest part I think, is replacing the door spring that rides on the lower hinge; a body shop tool is needed for that.
I know it's not a Ford but it may give you some ideas on how to install the door hinge pins... ------------------------ Replacing Door Hinges.by SCCoA member, JerryRed94SC I replaced the pins and bushings on the driver door on my 94 SC. I used the universal pin and bushing kit #38400 that you can buy at any auto store that sells HELP! kits and replacement parts. They were easy to replace. First remove the ground connector from the battery. You don't have to disconnect any wiring at the door, but you need to disconnect the battery to be safe. Next open the door and position a floor jack under the door to support it and make sure to cover the jack with a towel to protect the paint on the door. Get someone to hold the door for you while you remove the bolts from the DOOR SIDE ONLY of both hinges. Pull the door out away from the car as far as the wiring will let you. Now you can get at the tops of the hinges to remove the pins. Grind off the top of the pins (a dremel tool with a rasp bit works good). Look at the orientation of the hinge, and you can drive the pins out of each hinge with a tapered punch. Knock the bushings out of the hinge half that falls off after you removed the pins and install the new bushings that come in the kit. The door side hinge half is the only one that moves with the door, so it is the only half that has bushings. You are now ready to put the hinge back together. The new pins are longer than they need to be, so measure them against the old pins and cut them about 1/4 inch longer. Round off the end of each pin with a file or better yet a grinding wheel if you own one. Now put the hinge back together being CAREFUL to align the stop on the hinge so it is oriented right. It stops the door so it doesn't open too far. The pins drive in from the bottom and are knurled next to the head to seat them and hold them in the hinge. I used an air impact hammer that works fast and great. Otherwise you will have to pound them in with a hammer and punch. The drivers door took me about an hour. You may need to replace the door striker bolt if it is worn badly. You need to check the door alignment after you get the screws back in the hinge. Be patient and the alignment isn't too hard. You need this other person to help hold the door while you adjust the bolts. You now have a door that works like new, and you saved about $50. labor per door. The kits are cheap. Good Luck!
There is a bolt on the side of the hinge.If you loosen the bolt, the hinge comes apart and you can lift the door off the hinge.You will need to remove the door panel and remove the wiring harness before you can remove the door.
A guy I met who does body work told me that you impact the door pins out of the hinge. the bushings go bad on them so it causes the door to sag and not close properly. I just don't know if you have to impact hammer them from the top down or bottom up. I think its from the top down. post back if this is right or not. I need to replace the pins on my driver side door too.
First you need to get the right tools for the job and the right parts to fix the problem. There is a hinge pin in both the upper and lower hinges and four brass bushings and there is two different size bushings in each hinge and also two hinge pin retaining washers. As for the tools, you need a spring compressor, jack, hammer, punch. First, open the door all the way and put jack under door. I like to use a 2-by-4 board on top of the jack to help spread the weight of the door out a little. Next, if the door has a wiring harness in the jamb loosen the rubber insulation form both the door and the body. This gives a couple of inches of slack in the wiring. Next use the spring compressor to remove the spring, then use the punch and hammer to drive out the pins. It is very hard to get them to move at first but gets easier as they start to move. I would recommend having a helper to hold the door upright as it will fall when the pin is removed from the hinge. Once the pins are out move the door and jack away from the body, to gain more access room the replace the bushings: two in the door side and two in the body side. Then slide door and jack back and align hinge holes and install new pins. I always grease the bushing and pins before installing. Drive the new pins all the way flush with the hinge and install the retainers. Reinstall the spring and reattach the wiring insulation.
In construction or home supply, you tell the hinge of a door from the outside or from the side that the door opens away from. Looking at it. Your way is the same if you think about it. In either case, it would be a right hand hinge.
