Default 94 convertible sagging drivers door

I got my brake problems fixed. New speakers, amp and head unit installed. Now the sagging drivers door is next on the list. The top hinge is good with no play. The bottom one is the culprit. Any suggestions on how to fix it? In the pic you can see the back edge is low. It hits the door striker hard and lifts when shutting.

I really like the color of your XJS. Is that a factory color? If so what is the code?

Thanks!

Mark

GM hinge pins are just enough larger to do the job after reaming. I cannot remember the exact size but to fit Corvettes in particular comes to mind.
I reamed to the pin size, no bushes but I think they come with bushes if you wish to go that route.
