Question Passenger floorboards won't move

The passenger floorboards don't want to go up when they're down, and don't want to go down when they're up. It's like they're stuck on something, but, checking them out, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot involved.

Anyone else run into this and know a fix?

Did you try a bit of oil first?

Any idea how to take them apart? Do I just push or pull the hinge pin out?

You'll need to pull the rubber up on the hinge pin side. Then you can just punch the hinge pins in toward the center of the floorboard.
