The passenger side door on my 93 LX is starting to sag and now it has started to rub the body. Can someone give me some info on how to fix it semi-inexpensively? Thanx in advance.

go to your local auto parts store and get a hinge pin kit. it comes with new pins and bushings. you take the hinges off, drill them out, put in the bushings, pop in the pins and there ya go. its like 10 bucks for the kit if not less

Will I need to take off the door?

  I can't say for explorers, but Mustangs yes. The hinge pin is essentially the same one. You can go to AutoZone and get a explorer pin/bushing set. You can either get an air chisel or a dremmel and cut off the bottom of the current hinge pin. remove the pin and bushing and insert a the new one. Make sure you cover the new bushings with grease before inserting.   You know the worst thing people do that destroy these bushings is spray a lubricant with a penatrant in it. (WD40) is may stop squeaking, but it washes away the grease and deteriorates the bushing. Just a though for others.....   I've done about 4 mustangs with this method. some use a recripicating saw and if you have a jigsaw, some allow you to rotate the head/blade at a 90 to the body allowing you to get the saw in that area. (I don't see it)   CR
I have a 1991 Navajo (same as the Explorer Sport) with a sagging
driver's side door.  I think the bushings are shot and have heard
that replacing the lower hinge or lower bushings fix provide a
temporary fix.  Has anyone done this? Can I just replace the
bushings without replacing the whole hinge?  Any assistance is
appreciated
