Driver door sags
Hello everyone,

I just acquired an 85 GSL-SE. The driver door sags a little. It still works, but is a little irritating when closing. Do you guys know how to adjust it? Thanks,

Both my passenger and driver did that. I fixed it buy replacing the bushings.

you should be able to break the hinges loose were they bolt to the car. you'll loosen the bolts and break the seal around them. then have someone hold the door up while you retighten the bolts. this should raise the door to fit right.
