Re: Door grazing fender when opening
How's the gap at the back of the door?? If it's ok, the fender needs to go forward a bit. If the gap is wide, move the door back a bit.. All the restorers "shoot" for 3/16" gap.. All you need is about 1/8" more clearance.. The fender is bolted solidly to the cab, so cab mounts don't effect that gap..

Re: Door grazing fender when opening
That's a fairly easy adjustment. The cowl panel will need to be loosened. Once you get the fender where you want it, then also adjust the cowl panel to share the same gap to the door as the fender.
