[T3] Creaking door hinge


<x-flowed> I'm having trouble getting oil in the upper door hinge to stop creaking. I never did understand how the oil is supposed to migrate from the top "recessed" lube point, down into the middle moving area. I'm getting desperate, so I drilled an 1/8" hole in the middle section (not the pin, that must be hardened). But still can't seem to get anything in there with grease gun, WD-40 pressurized bottle, etc. Any ideas short of pressing out the pin?
