Have you verified that your door hinges have not worn to the point of being sloppy? You need to confirm (and fix) this before going any further with messing with body mount shims. Also make sure that your frame and rocker channels are solid. If these are weak, your doors will shift. Even if your mounts are a bit deteriorated your doors shouldn't shift by this much. A different story if the mounts have completely rotted away.
