If you do your repairs in a sagging condition nothing will ever line up.
Thanks, these are perfect!

I think I just get paranoid because my cab is off right now and that is the only thing I'm looking at --- not how the cab lines up with the bed.

I'll fit the doors on tomorrow to see my gap alignment before I go further, that's a very good idea!!

Thanks again!!
