Default driver's door hinges

My driver's door is sagging from worn hinges. I see that they are welded to the body. Any experts here on replacing the pins/bushings etc ??
Are pins & bushings dealer-only parts ?

The sagging door causes wind noise in the upper weather strip gap above the door, and riles me up with the noise....

The welds might be the problem. A lot of people have sagging from broken/thin welds that can't hold the door. I had to reweld all 4 hinges on both of my front doors.

I'm going to pay attention to this... I want to fix my sagging driver door as well. The rebuild kits can easily be bought online. I have found them for as little as $4. I just haven't found the time to tackle this issue yet.
