Let me know

Thanks, Dominic! I think I should be able to get by reusing my old hinges, fortunately. They seem pretty slop-free, and thing they appear to need is new rollers and springs for the door brake mechanism on the lower hinges, which I'll replace when I take the hinges back off and clean them up. Fortunately, I see Ames sells the rollers & springs in a kit.

A great idea! Too late for me to try that now, but it's an excellent tip that I will remember for future encounters with stubborn Phillips head bolts.
