Success rate of hinge repair with just pins and bushings?

86' C30 crewcab dually.

Owner complained about air whipping around inside the cab when driving with the windows up - with the doors sagging so much it's no wonder. Driver's door is sagging and has been long enough the door post is worn down. Bushings appear to have broken up into pieces.


Got the Dorman pin and bushing kit. Looks like the door has to be unbolted as the pin won't clear the door.

Hoping I can just unbolt the door, replace the bushings and pins, then bolt the door back on and have good enough/ great alignment.

Am I dreaming? Do these pin and bushing replacements ever completely solve the sagging door problem by themselves?
