Default Saggy Door???

The driver side door on my 1991 CRX Si seems to be sagging a little bit, meaning it gets caught when i close it. If i lift the door slightly it closes smooth. Has any one had this problem and how have they gone about fixing it. I am assuming I need to replace the hinges. If there is a write-up on it someone please forward me the link. Any help is appreciated.

You should take a good look at what your dealing with first. It could be that the metal on the door has cracked or fatigued in which case you may need a whole door. I've seen people try to get crafty and weld a plate in to repair such a problem, but it always returns.
good luck

It's the door hinges, 90% of old cars I've seen with this problem had worn out hinges (not just honda's).
