Try the junk yard. I am getting ready to try rebushing the driver side hinges on my car. It shouldn't be to hard but I also have a machine shop that I can use. I will post results when ever I do it

i played with this about 10 years ago.

mazda only sells the hinges complete

but they do easily come apart, and there is a bushing in there. the problem was the bushing is kind of a weird size, and all the easily available stuff (gm) isnt really even close.

so its either make custom pins and bushings, which isnt that bad, buy new which is much easier, or you can readjust the door a little higher

What if you just need the springs? In my car the bushings are fine but the springs are a little stretched.

Sorry to thread jack.
