The best thing to do is to purchase a complete new hinge assembly and replace it. These GM type vehciles were notorious for the hinges going bad.
AlsoIf you take the hinge out most part stores sell the repair kit (the brass bushings and new steel pins) in their HELP! section. It's not too hard to do.I have a 86 Monte and the doors sis sag down and you had to slan them shut, but all you need to do is replace the upper pin, not the whole hinge. you need to take your door off and hit the pin out and put the new bushings back in the right spot and you have to mallet in the pin whenthe bushings are allready in place. your going to need a jack with a towel over it or another perosn to help put the door back on.
