sagging driver's side door (pic)

sorry for blurry pic it was my cell phone. Is this a busted bushing and would it cause my door to sag about a 1/2 inch?

Where the door bolts to the body - may be loosened and the door "tilted" to line up - and then adjust the striker the sane way, so it matches up w/ the latch.

pins and bushings

I contacted Ford dealer about pins and bushings for my '96. I was told they do not sell replacement bushings and I would have to buy the whole hinge at almost $200.00 each. If somebody has a kit for changing pins and bushings I would like that info.
