Door is sagging

My drivers door is sagging a bit so the top corner is too the point where it is about to touch the rear door when it closes. The rubber trim does hit already. Is there a way to move the top hinge forward a bit. The door closes nicely still, so it looks like the latch is alligned.

I know the rear door was replaced on my car, and when I look at it, it seems it may be easier to just shim the back door back a bit. I think they might have placed the back door a little to close to the front.

Ideas please.

Answer

Diagnose the issue, then repair:
* Body damage
* Hinge damage
* Door damage
* Improper door install/alignment


Many members have spare hinges.
