Got a picture of what exactly you cut off? I think only 96 and older doors you can cut the bottom
Of the hinge off and take the doors off that way.

97+ the pressed in pin needs to be removed and replaced with a bolt or some kind of pin

The Jeep part of the hinge with the door removed should look like this:



And the door part of the hinge (with a bolt welded in where the pin used to be) should look similar to this:
