Anybody know if the tops are different from the bottoms. My door leans out at the top causing a bad seal on the rubber. I did have a new set put on(allegedly) years ago and there was no change. So i`m wondering if they did do the job they fitted them incorrectly. I tried adjusting them inwards but no joy.

so you can see that the door is out... not just the glass?

yeah the wing mirror triangle is proud at the top by about 3-5mm, without a doubt its the door.

there was a post a few days ago, shoes the door and adjustment points, you should use the bolts to the door not the body..

 

see the FSM "BODY" page 10 "Door"

 

good luck..

The bolts that go through hinge into tbe door have a sleeve on them and there is a washer on the hinge that once the door is lined up it is tack welded so if u take the door off it will go back in its original position,

If u unbolt it from the body side its a pain in the arse to get back right,

 

When I took mine off I took the welds off then position the doors better and re tacked them.

 

The top and bottom hinges are different, but if u have worn drivers door hinges and find a scrapper the passanger hinges work on drivers door just turn them around,

Top hinge on passenger becomes bottom on driver etc.

And the passenger door hinges are normally less worn.

 

My drivers door would line up spot on with glass down and no rubbers but soon has I did windows up and put rubbers on and shut the door it looked like door had dropped,

The play in the hinge was letting the door push away.

Good info.

This needs a sticky.
