Thank you. That worked for me. My left rear door had some trouble closing all the way sometimes. I noticed it was out at the bottom. Now it's perfect.

how do I adjust up ?

thanks man!

thankuuuu!!!!

I do have a question sir. Replaced the passenger side door on my 1980 Pontiac Gand Prix. Both hinges and pins are good, Org, door was rusty, so installed a good used one. Door to qtr. panel and door to fender gaps are pretty good and it closes and opens ok. The whole door needs to be raised to align the top of the door {where the window sweeps are on top} to the body lines. In other words, there is an 1/8 gap between the window glass and the window weatherstrip when the window is raised all the way up in the closed position. I did not remove the hinges from the cowl, they are in the factory installed position. I only removed the hinge to door bolts. I was just going to loosen those bolts and either place a floor jack under the center of the door a little to lift it and retighten the bolts, or loosen the bolts, close the door gently and use an angled piece of 2x4 between the bottom of the door and the rocker panel to force the door up. By the way, the front fender is still on and in the same position since 1980. Will prying up on the door bend or damage the door bottom lip and or rocker panel? Any advice will be great. Thanks

First and foremost, that is a good-looking RED on the Pontiac. And copper trim adds class.

Copper. Projects looking good. Nice work gentlemen.

Copper

Copper definitely

Painted

God bless you

Good video. I took both hinges off. Bought new ones for 68 mustang. Do l have to take the front fender off to get the door correctly on? Cause fooling with the adjustment bolts is a bear!

Very useful explanation!

I need to raise my left door on my 73 El Comino. Please reply. Thank you.

Excellent explanation! Thank you!

Very good explanation on door alignment .

Awesome man thank you

Great job

No other video on youtube tops this one. Great explanation and thank you

Joke what policies did they mention that will actually help? JOKE

Got u that X did it

Panel bond extremely hard hold up

👍🏻👍🏻

What do you use to replace the lead afterwards? All Metal? Fiberglass? Lead the seam again? I’ve seen someone weld a constant weld using patch to bridge the gap. What is your opinion?

This was very helpful. If you are replacing a quarter panel would align the door to the rocker panel/front cowl and then align the quarter panel to the door?

Just replaced my driver's door that was damaged in an accident and the new door doesn't close all the way (maybe a bent mount). Hopefully this will fix it. Thanks for the video!

to the point..good info..a refresher is what I needed

Too the point and short and sweet... That is what we like

Stupid 50mph wind in Wyoming almost blew my driver door right off and now the hinges are bent I think. 😩😩

Just brought home a '64 Catalina 2+2 from resto/body shop. The gap to front fender is fair, probably should have been wider. I installed new door weatherstrip, but haven't closed the door all the way with the resistance and concern about that fender gap. It looks like it's even closer now. I'm concerned with it rubbing my new paint. Is that accurate, the weatherstrip will push the door toward the fender meaning I need to readjust? Thanks in advance.

Thank you for this video! Extremely helpful and one of the better explanations on YT! I am curious, you don't mention the striker installation or adjustment. At what point in the process do you deal with the striker? I see that the striker is removed during adjustments. Assuming this happens after all other adjustments? Would love to hear your approach.

Love your wrap ups....thanks again for what you did to help us out of a jam....

Can you make a video installing a door start to finish?

Thanks for this video it helps a lot.

Nice! I know what I'll be doing tomorrow! My Jeep door won't close at all. This should fix me up.

Our car was hit at night (in front of the house), and the DS door was bent and jammed till the extend I think to replace it. But it is a question how to remove that door. A large bent is on the central and bottom part with some sharp crevices near the lower hinge. The blow was so strong that the car was moved from the road to the side walk. That hinge is bent from its normal position, and I can't open that door. I thought to apply a braker bar, but after this film think to play around with that lower hinge by lifting or lower the door and try to open it that way. Thank you very much for this informative film.

Incredible amount of work from a 2 man shop!! Great job, thanks for the update..

Awesome tutorial...

That X was the best thing i learned today. Thank you!!!!

I have a 67 Fairlane with movable door plates

Years of experience you can tell by his cool and calm explanation.

Thanks. Will help re align my cadillac passenger door ✌️

thanks so much

Awesome ride. Hope to follow this one!

More sheet metal videos please! ha

❤ thank you very much Will this apply to 2nd gen f body as well. You make this seem easy. I've been aggravated at passenger side door. I just got my driver side door and window adjusted. I'm putting tape on my door to help me remember the adjustment. Thanks

So glad you made this video. Thank you about to attempt to bend the door myself.

This is the best DIY auto video. Superb
