saggy doors...any tips?

The doors on my 55 chevy truck are sagging a tiny bit and I need to adjust them.

Does anybody here have any tips on the easiest/best way to do this?

Thanks,

Do the hinges need to be rebuilt?

Take a look at http://alanhorvath.com/54chevy/doorlatch.php he is a moderator on the Stovebolt.com website and has lots of instructional stuff he has logges with pictures on his web page. I see your driving a 1955.5 but maybe his method may help yours too?
