The door pins on the front driver side door are worn out, you can feel the door ride up on the lock when you close it. Are the door pins replacable or do I have you buy the whole hinge? Is it a difficult or expensive thing to replace?

I can't answer the pin question, but I can tell you for a fact that anything that involves door hinges is a PITA. Getting the doors lined up is a horrible, time consuming process

It looks like you will have to replace the whole hinge, unfortunately. This info per the thread I've linked below:

Do yourself a favor and buy a door spring removal tool, makes it a hell of a lot easier and only costs ~$12.
