Question Door drops when opened. Is this what I need?

I have a 1990 Camaro RS, that like most f-bodies, the door falls slightly when you open it. Is this what I need and how hard to install?

Yeah probably. Thats usually the case with sagging. To check this all you have to do is open the door and lift up and down on it. Where you see movement thats your problem. I'm not sure if our cars have those though I think they are sealed hinges. If we do have them its a cheap easy fix. I'd look but my car is in storage in a different state. You might have to buy a whole hinge.

Im not able to see the link that ya posted on a government computer but what you need is a full bushing kit for each hinge. Make sure you have a buddy and a good jack. the doors are heavy as hell.
