The driver's side door hinge on my 92 had so much slop the door wouldn't shut unless you picked it up about an inch. To remedy this my brother and I welded a 5/16" fender washer (had to trim the washer to get it to fit) over the hole with the pin in and lifting the door. The fender washer hole was a perfect fit for the hinge pin. Just figured I'd see if anyone else has tried something similar.
