Door hinge/pin question

So I know I need to replace the door pins on my Jimmy because...well, they are shot. I've included a picture of the top pin on the driver's side of my truck. In the circled area, there is a HUGE gap around the bushing. Is this normal or did the bushing/pin go bad so long ago that it actually rubbed out some more metal from the hole? Basically, I just want to confirm if new door bushings/pins will eliminate that huge space or not so my doors shut straight.
Thanks

That is called wore out. Are both top & bottom that way? Mine was not quite that bad on the top & I got away with replacing just the top pin & bushings. The top is the hardest one because of the spring.

Yeah...that circled one is pretty bad.....just adding a new bushing is most likely not going to help the situation for you.
if you look at some fixes done like jbweld and such you might get lucky and be able to patch it that way.
