Accessing Driver Side Door Hinge

[hunter1123]

Hey, does anyone know to access the upper drivers side door on a 1970 c10 specifically the bolts on the body side without taking the whole fender off? The door won’t close worth a damn(hitting striker plate low). I just can’t seem to get my arm all the way up from the bottom to reach it. Any help is appreciated thanks!

I think I found a box wrench that got about 1/8 turn per bolt not fun. Probably short 16 point wrench.... Sounds like your hinge pins are loose, if you lift the door on the latch side does it move?

Okay cool thanks and Yeah the hinge pins are definitely loose and I’m sure that has a lot to do with the door not closing right, all the gaps are screwed up too which is why I wanted to adjust them. I just can’t believe how difficult it is to access that door hinge lol
