Door hinges

I have an '84 GSL-SE. The driver's door is getting a little hard to close and I noticed
there's a little bit of up and down play in the door. I suspect my hinge pins are getting
worn. Can the hinge pins be replaced or do I have to replace the whole hinge?
Where can I get replacement hinges or hinge pins?
Thanks.

what do you mean getting hard to close?? like does the door sag or is it just a pain to push on it. I bought a can of white lithium grease and sprayed it on the roller and it closes like a dream now.

The door is sagging. With the driver's door open I can lift on the outside edge and
there is a little movement. If I lift on the passenger door there is no movement.

If you do a search for hinge pins, a topic discussed this a few months ago.
