I recently snapped one of the hinge pin bolts on my drivers door (actually my dad did it trying to help), they said it would take 2 hrs to replace. Has anybody else had this problem. He just threaded the cap on to the stud and barely put a ratchet to it when the cap fell off and took the bottom part of the stud with it. If you haven't had this happen, just be careful. They're easy to break.

How much of the stud did you break I tossed those bolts long time ago they are pretty unnecessary

Update: the pins did not come painted. I now have to wait until they can paint them and then come back. Ive been here for 1.5 hrs
