fixing sagging doors w/ TDS

My doors don't look like they are sagging, but my scratched paint proves otherwise. GRRR

So... I've decided to fix the problem.

I'm thinking about purchasing the following from TDS:

Deluxe Door Hinge Repair Kit
GM Door Spring Tool
Door Hinge "Pin Popper"

Is there anything I'm forgetting?

Also, will this permenantly fix my problem, or will these pins sag over time? What about my door hingers, I hear they give out sometimes as well. Will they be a problem for me in the future?

Thanks!
Bill

It's bound to happen in the future with such heavy doors. Should provide many years without problems though.

P.S.

Will I need the 5 Pc. Long-Pin Punch Set as well?
