You cut it out and weld in a replacement piece

I’m assuming it’s your door latch ? It’s prob wedged it there and has already broken off . Like I said I would cut out a nice rectangle and replace it with a new latch peice .

kirban has a plate for that , just unbolt the striker put plate there and bolt striker back in

Unless your hinges are toast, you can get a hinge pin kit with bushings

Yes. You just have to have a way to hold the door up while the top hinge is out. I used a forklift on mine but a engine crane will work too. Or some hooks in the ceiling and some motorcycle straps if you're in a pinch.

Go ahead and do a search for some new swear words. You'll need them when it comes to getting that spring back in place.

I installed these a few months ago. It’s not necessary to weld them in place.

that's great shouldn't take too long to do.

Wear goggles when putting that door spring in, maybe a sports helmet as well.

I even had the special tool available to put the spring back in with and almost lost an eye.

Richard Clark had a good tip in a thread about how to change out the top pin, hopefully the search feature works for you and you can find out some tips how to do it safely and easily.
