My doors are sagging more than grandmas boobs!!!!
Is there any fix for sagging doors? Any suggestions or tips are appreciated.

more than your grandmas boobs, I doubt that....
but anyway, there are a few fixes.. depending on the year, you may be able to replace the hinges (if they bolt on) they sell larger dia. pins (but you'd have to re-drill the holes). or you can weld the holes, redrill, and put new pins in.... depending on the year, new hinges would be the best route (if they are glued on, i'd hire a body guy to fix it...) don't worry, it's normal wear, I had an 81, that I drilled to take 1/2" bolts... ------------------ Black,84 GT,ground effects,shorty headers, 'open' dual exh.,302 HO(no pollution control crap),T5,89 ported heads,edelbrock Performer manifold, Edelbrock 2122 cam,600 Holley, high volume oil pump... gears (4:10's) coming soon. N2O, soon to follow!!! |
better yet, install a roll cage, and weld the doors shut (it'll intimidate the competition) they'll think it's a drag car...

I had the same problem about a month ago. Got to where it would take about 5-6 tries to get the door shut. I took it to one body shop and they said they wanted $80 to fix it. Took it to them to fix it and they never showed up to work. So I went to another shop and this guy takes a look at it. Grabs this big crowbar looking thing, and begins to lift the door up using the striker. Took him about 2 minutes to get it straightened out. Didn't cost me a thing. Might want to see if thats what yours needs. Just a thought.

Try installing new hinge pins...about $20. Easily available (Mustangs Unlimited has them) and a shop will install them for about $50., or do it yourself.
