Raw Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 My passenger door on my defender 90 wont close, it looks in line on the striker plate to the lock yet still wont close. Looking at the line on the body the door seems to have sunk (i think), what is the best way to sort this to loosen the hinges on the bulkhead or on the door? There is markings on top of the catch which seems to indicate the door is to low, as the last time i opened the door it seemed to jam Any advice would be appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happyoldgit Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 the adjustment is on the bulkhead screws Yup. Slacken the four screws that secure the hinges to the bulkhead and hopefully you will find that there is enough adjustment to re-align the door. You still might need to adjust the lock striker though. If the hingepins are very worn you might find a couple of new hinges will work wonders.
