2nd Generation Gen 2 Doors

My drivers door is sagging a bit from a worn hinge. When you open it, it drops a little bit and makes closing it a bit harder than the rest of the doors. The others a great to close. I was wondering if anyone has had the same problem and tried to fix it. I realise I could get a new hinge, but are there inserts or sleeves than you can buy to restore the old hinge? I've seen some other cars that have brass sleeves that can be replaced when they wear, instead of replacing the whole hinge.

Thanks.

JSC, you can actually adjust the hinge where it mounts to the body, just need to do it carefully, i'll talk to my mate later today and next time i'm over we'll fix it up.

Cheers
