Default Door Sagging

Having an issue with the driver side door on my 95 V6 Mustang Coupe, the door alignment seems to off, I would say about half an inch. Just wondering if anyone knows what is needed to correct the alignment?

Any help would be appricated since the door doesn't really want to latch anymore and has a tendency to fling open while driving :P

Hey Doogie...
Sounds simply like one of the hinges (or both) are going bad. These don't cost that much, about $30 each if I remember correctly. They are fairly easy to install, but make sure that you trace the old hinges befor you pull them...aligning these things are a BITCH!
Good luck.

Also check out the local NAPA or others, some of the pivot pins and bushings are sold cheap. You cut through the pin and remove the door without changing the hinge placement.
