Yup
You will need two people….
1.loosen up the nuts
2.pull door up above the line where it would look like it would be fine about ¼ inch
3.Tight the nuts and the door will sag a little but, should now be level with the body lines.
You might need to go higher or lower depends on how bad the door sags.

Kinda a noob at body work so bear with me. I check the bottom mount and where would it be pushing into the fiberglass? How would this cause it to sag a little and how could I fix it if that's the issue?

Not that long ago.....
Seriously, the fiberglass in the door is weak and flexes. I'm wanting to work on mine as well. Haven't come up with a plan of attack yet. If anyone has one, I'm all ears.

The inside is already reinforced. Its tied into the crash bar that runs the lenght of the door. I removed the door while i was doing the M6 conversion and put 3 layers of fiberglas matte on the inside and out, then reinstalled the
Reinforcement, Sanded and painted to match. Good as new. Only took
2 evenings. Very easily repaired.
