Squeaky Glovebox hinges

THEY'RE DRIVE ME NUTZ!!! I hate squeaks in general but this is loud and drives me bonkers. Is this a common problem or am I alone here? If mine is isolated then I may be missing a screw or something. If it's common then what's the fix. It was really bad before I knew what it was but now I know so I think it's fixable. But wow that glovebox assembly is heavy! Almost more than the hinges can hadle for the long haul. Thanks in advance.

Fixed it! It was a missing bolt, in fact it was several missing bolts. Someone had torn the dash out and probably put it back with left overs. They never bothered to find out where the extra bolt and screws go. At least my truck sounds solid again and not like some rattly POS anymore.
