I need to raise my driver's side door about 1/4". It's gouging the strike plate and sometimes doesn't latch.

I loosened the 3 bolts on the pillar ends of each of the hinges. The door won't slide up (or down). I have put a floor jack under the door to gently coax it upward, but it won't budge.

Has corrosion I can't see locked it into place.

Thanks!!!!
