Door dropping
Door on my 1989 clipper it drops. I've had a little play around with the 13mm nut on the top hinge but doesn't help. Can't seem to get socket on the bottom nut because of the door stay is in the way. Do you think the bottom nut would fix the issue if I can adjust it.
Thanks in advance

Yes you have to have the door wide open.
Your hinge pins may be worn, and you have to take the pin out of the door check to get to the bottom bolt, and only use a
6pt Socket, I have had to use a breaker bar to get one loose.
BUT
It is the top that needs to be adjusted up, and you can cheat by loosening the top bolt do not remove.
insert a shim between the frame side and the door hinge.
