The frame to the left is missing the pivot points.  New points are sitting on the face of the hinge frame, ready to install.  The frame to the right shows the pivots in place between the hinge and frame.  The pin pasts through all of these parts to hold the assemble together.

Above shows the left hinge with the new pivot points.  The assembly is together and  ready to have the pin set.  The right hinge assembly shows someone of the repairs needed.   A stress fracture and missing tab need welding up.  (Right) You can see the how the bushings act as the new pivot surface.

This photos shows one of the "C" spring installed in its correct location.

There are two springs needed for both of the top hinges.

The bottom hinges do not have the slots in the hinge frame, nor a mounting hole in the hinge itself.
