Hinge Pin Bushing ?
Anyone know what the deal is on the Thick vs Thin hinge pin bushing is? I need to know which one I need. My hinges are worn and it looks like thin ones in there. Are the thick ones to replace the thin ones if the hole is worn?

As far as I know, the different bushings are for different cars. If you need the thin ones, but the hole is wallowed out, you might be able to drill them for the thick ones...but maybe not.
Often the bushings wear (brass), and you can just replace the bushings even if the hinge hole is worn out-of-round, and still get good results.
