Re: Help with door alignment
Grab the back of your door and see if you can shake it up and down. If there is any slack there it needs to be taken out before going forward. Just remember the body side bolts will adjust the door forwards and backwards. the door side hinge bolts will adjust the door in and out. Now you can if needed get a small amount of twist in either one with the use of a shim. but looking at the pics of the truck in question I say it hopefully needs some bushings in the hinges. That will be a lot easier to fix than will loosening the hinge bolts with the fenders on with out the fender wrench. If you don't have the special Kent Moore wrench or the Snap-On cousin, maybe try a Crescent [not wrench but shape] wrench to see if it will work a lot of times they will. I hope I have at least not done any harm in you trying to adjust the door on your truck. Jim
