Re: door sag

No. While the bottom pins wear also the top pins and bushings are more important.
I found mine on ebay but that seller does not currently have any. his seller name is jroushia. I paid $40 shipped per door. But most are $100 per door.

Re: door sag

Those pins and bushings are only for the lower hinge, the upper is different and doesn't use pins like that. While there are other kits available that repair the upper hinge, this may be all the parts you need to keep your doors opening and closing for a few more years. And it's also my experience that a lot of people wait too long to do anything about it. It's best to catch it before the bushings are completely gone and you're wearing on the hinge itself, and beating up your latch and striker. If you wear out the hole the bushing goes in then you need to weld it up and machine it back out to the correct size.
