Larson storm door hinge is drifting

Home Owner from TX
We have a new issue with an old Larson 3/4 storm door. I wish I could give you the model name or number, but I don't have the manual and there are no stickers or other identification on the door.

The problem is that the top hinge is separating from the door (not the jamb). This likely occured when the closer mounting bracket failed. I've since replaced the closer and it has helped, but the top hinge remains loose, so the storm door doesn't align on the top corner as tightly as it should.

It does not appear that hinge pin itself is broken or bent; that appears to be intact. It's more that the hardware *inside the door* appears to be compromised.

I don't know if it's replaceable. But if it is, I'd like to try before spending $$ on a new door. (In your photo for the 40-153, I see where the hinge screws into the jamb, but not into the door. My current hinge screws into both.)

Any ideas?

Thanks.

The 40-153 is similar, but I'm not sure if it will work. The only other option we have is our hinge repair kit, the 40-165. Could you possibly use this to fix your hinge?
