All,

 
After months sitting on my low height lift and countless door open and close cycles, and the added weight of the engine and trans axle, my passenger door has definitely developed a sag, and even exhibits a little up down wiggle when nearly closed. The Phillips head screws used at the A-pillar did take a bit of tightening but not enough to cure the problem. So I think things have just shifted a little bit since leaving Denny’s shop. 
 
Our cars are lucky in that both door hinges are attached entirely with screws/bolts, unlike some cars that employ rivets for some of the hinge attachment. 
 
I don’t want to just start loosening the bolts in hopes that I am loosening the right ones, but in reality perhaps just aggravating the problem.
 
Has anyone done this often enough to establish some sort of a sequence of approach that removes some of the uncertainty?
 
Thanks,
 
Larry
