adjusting doors

im trying to adjust my passenger side door, its rubbing up in the top back corner when i close it, im thinking that i need to loosen the bolts on the top hinge but its behind the fender, i figured if i loosened them i could lift on the back part of the door and then tighten them, that should stop the rubbing, but i cant get in there and i dont wanna take my front fender off, whats the trick guys?

Know any fat chicks? Get one to hang on the end of the door. That should do the trick. Other than that, take off the fender and do it right. You could remove the bolts from the door end of the hinge and then shim them. Ive done that. I like the fat chick idea though. he he he

I have to agree in order to do it right you should pull the fender....

I use a Snap On Wrench, no. S9619 for adjusting doors with the fenders on. A little tricky but it works.
