cra42 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Guys, Right side door not lining up. Just rear of door. Front is fine. Left side door is fine. Where is problem? Tub? Truck is a diesel 88 RHD. Thx, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh NZ Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 It's probably a combination of the door hinges sagging and tub perhaps sitting a little high. Does the tub have any packing under it? Similarly, do the door hinges have a lot of play in them? If it's the door hinges, make sure to adjust the catch afterwards so it shuts again!

Gazzar Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 If the front seam is fine then it most likely is the tub. Was there any welding to the chassis? Try putting a string from the back of the tub to the front of the wing/fender along the waist fold and see if there is any strangeness. The bulkhead could be tilted forward, with the wing/fender attached a bit high. Get the waist fold right along the side, and the gaps can be sorted afterward. G.

discomikey Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 as suggested above, you need to take some measurements and 'levels' in order to determine whether the bulkhead, or tub is on the wonk. then rectify this, the actual gap size once parallel is down to adjustment of the hinges and/or packing the bulkhead back slightly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
