DIY - Sagging Door Fix
What you need:
Cost: $2-$4
I am not resposible for any damages to your car/truck from this DIY.
Go to the door thats sagging and get your ratchet set, I think its a 13mm bolt. Loosen the bottom hinge bolts and take the bottom one completely out and either you or a friend pull up on the door slightly, As you/ they are doing this slide the washer behind the bottom bolt hole and slid the bolt in. Now, Tighten the bolts back up while pulling up on the door. Close the door for a test run if it needs to come up more then put another washer in there although anymore than two on the very most bottom bolt should have another washer on the top bolt on the bottom hinge.
Good luck.
Thanks,
Cheat.
