In that case you need to work out where the problem lies before doing anything drastic. Have there been any major sheet-metal repairs to the bottoms of the A and/or B-posts?
If the A-post looks OK, make a full-length template of its profile - the top 2/3 should be more-or less dead straight, with a continuous, gentle curve inwards for the lower 1/3, so that it throws in by 3/8" at the bottom. If it doesn't do this, then repairs will be necessary before you think about the doors themselves.
If you're happy with the A-post, check your template against the leading and trailing edges of the doors and against the B-post. They should all have identical profiles.
Now make a horizontal template off the waistline of a door. The top and bottom profiles of the doors should match this.
Hopefully, you'll then know where the problem(s) is(are). My guess is that the bottoms of the B-posts will be out and the door frames will prove to have been badly repaired.
New frame kits are available, but I'd better not push the commercial any further!
