Need advice about a sagging driver's door

I have a '96 F350. The driver's door is sagging a little and I noticed that the pin in the lower hinge is worn. My question: Do I have to replace the whole hinge, or can I drive the pin out and put a new pin and or bushings in.

This.

The pin has a little bushing that has to be drilled out. Once that's done, you can drive the pin out, and swap in the new ones.

Do them one at a time and it'll go a lot smoother.
