Lower Hinge Repair... Help!

Me and my dad are replacing the driver's side hinges today with the hinge kits from Andy at 3rdGenSolutions.com We are waiting on the dremel to recharge back up now haha. I was just wondering, how do you repair the LOWER hinges? We have the repair kit for the doors with that one pin with the point at the bottom and those two bushings I guess. But how do you install them?

Thanks!

Dont know if it is in time but just pound the old pin out then put the bushings in where the old ones go on the hinge usually they will fall off or else you can use a punch and take them out. Do you have the oversized busings or original (oversized have little ridges on them and standard are smooth on the outside) sometimes you need the oversized bushings (put the regular in and if they are loose go to the oversized) then hammer the new one in hope this helps.
