Window closes crooked

The driver's side power window on my 94 Ranger closes crooked when it seals at the top. While it cranks up, I have to push up with my hand on the right side of the glass to get it to seal properly.
I took the door panel off and tracked the problem down to 2 worn plastic bushings (upper and lower) that slide on the track.

My question is, does anyone know where I might be able to get replacement pieces? Would a dealer have these things or would they try and sell me a whole new door? I'd be happy with an aftermarket place that would have these, but I don't know of any. Thanks.

I don't think that you will have to get a new door.

I thought about the junkyard option, but figured the bushings probably wouldnt be in much better shape than the ones in there already

Well, dropped by the dealership and it turns out they dont sell those plastic pieces by themselves

They do, however, sell a good part of the guts that go in there which include those pieces for (I was shocked) only $16. Might just be worth getting the whole piece since I'm actually not actually 100% sure those plastic pieces alone are what's causing the problem.

Before I go out an get the piece, think I'll try and rig up something homemade and see how it goes.

Thanks for the comments.
