Question Sagging door

Hey guys I had a post about this months back and finally I am getting my driver side door fixed. It hangs a little low and hits the bottom door sill when closing, not terribly but enough to annoy me. I bought the 30$ replacement bushing kit from 1a auto and was wondering I anyone has done this before. I'm guessing maybe this should take 2 hours but my mechanic is sayin at least 4 hours to fix the door. I don't think this is right, obviously I will speak to him in person but I thought that was a horrible estimate. Any thoughts? Thanks

If you are a little handy you can do it yourself.
I did the door pin and bushing on a 85 Buick Regal the tricky part is you need a GM door spring compressor $5 from Harbour Fright Tools. A hammer and punch (drift Pin)
Job took less than a half hour. Good Luck
