Default hinge bushings

looking for advice - after 4 hours all 4 door came off my 2011 Rubicon. I brought new bushings at 24.00 a piece yes 24 x 8. looks like they had bushing in already but of course the Teflon coating was wore off - I cleaned and lubricated with white lithium grease and was thinking of returning the new bushings and just removing and lubricating the door more often or should I try to remove old and install the new bushings ???

Why not go with the Delrin bushings? They're much cheaper and are self-lubricating. They make the doors buttery smooth again.
