Yah, Damn...I'm into it now....Putting the door back on and it's all out of whack!!!
I'm just replacing the top hinge and Yes I did mark it. I tried just replacing the top one without removing the door but I ended up having to remove the door from the body to try and align it back up... No go and at 12:30 am there she sits with a cockeyed door...Maybe I should have just knocked the pins out of the new and old hinge Door Stoppers and replaced them if I could and tap the ones out of the new ones into the old hinges without taking them off the truck If That's Possible...Heck I don't know...
It's 3:30 AM.......I woke up and can't sleep because of this Shi...uh Dilemma!....
