This car keeps giving surprises: I put new lock cylinders in the doors (the doors were swapped before I bought it), and figured while I was there I'd try to adjust the doors because they sag. Well, hinges look to be in good shape, but each door seems to have only ONE bolt per hinge holding it on. So, what size bolts am I after? I'm hesitant to pull one of the existing ones to take to the shop because as I said, only one bolt per hinge.

Sheesh! Thanks again, folks!
 
What is “this car?“

the other two bolts generally come from the inside out.

there are different sizes for different years Mopars.

Understood, mea culpa. It's a 75 Dart Sport body with 72 Duster doors. I don't think this next part matters, but it has a 72 Dart front clip.

Usually, the bolts that hold the door hinges to the hinge pillar post have the larger
diameter washer on them. The hinge to the door bolts have the smaller washer on
them. I believe they are 3/8"x16 thread?
 
3 bolts body side. 2 are on the inside of kick panel.
