Question
Door adjustment upward LH driverside

Answer
due to age, it may need pins and bushings. Lift up and down on the door- if you find any play in the hinges, it needs new bushings. Stop at a local body shop for an assessment of the hinges condition. Hinge bushing replacement is a bear of a job- not really a DIY job. Bill
