14Platoon Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Hello military defender 1990 plate Any ideas if I can lower the window frame height very slightly. My roof rack foot (gutter type) is catching on the top of a window. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 I've just changed mmy hinges and you can wiggle the door a little while the bolts are loose. It's pretty straight forward but if you have a door that doesn't leak and you move it down you might find it starts leaking at the top. Can you move the roof rack attachment forwards or backwards so it's not in line with the door? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharp Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 (edited) you may need some of these if the hinges haven't been off before! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Land-Rover-Defender-Door-Hinge-To-Bulkhead-Captive-Flanged-Nuts-x8-BYH500100/201857772388?epid=688121689&hash=item2effa92b64:g:iR8AAOSwB-1YzRkZ edit: forget that, doh. i imagine you will only need to do the door side Edited November 29, 2017 by Sharp extra info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
