Any tricks on aligning doors? I have a 2002 supercab 4x4 that had been wrecked before. Doors all close well, but the gaps dont match, and the wind noise isnt as good as Id want. I apreciate any advice you can provide!!! Thanks!

its a pain in the butt to do it with the fenders on unfortunatly, but can be done with a 13mm wrench and alot of patience.

Forward/back adjustments are done by loosening the bolts that attach the hinge to the a-pillar. In/out adjustments are done by loosening the bolts on the door itself.

Don't be afraid to bend the top of your door in if it isn't sealing properly, but too much can affect how your window closes.

Thanks. Gave it a shot and it went well. All aligned and ready to give the highway a shot.
