47-55 Door hinge pin rebuild kit?

Checking to see if anyone has found a door hinge rebuild kit for these years besides replacing the hinge? I have two trucks and they both need them.. Thanks for any ideas

Here is a "Basics of Basics" on rebuilding the hinges. I would HIGHLY recommend rebuilding them over buying reproduction parts.

the filling station has the parts and one of the owners also made a very comprehensive video demonstrating the methods. Did mine and they came out great
