Door hits fender?!?! Help.
The pass side door hits the fender.

It hits it when the door is getting open. It barely touches it, but enough to make a poping sound.

How do I align either of those.
The door sits a bit further away from the fender.

What he said. An ex-mechanic with a jack is what pushed my parts out of alignment.

Hmm. I might have to splurge and get the new mounting stuff for the doors.
Both of them you need a bit of force to close them properly.

However that fender thing just started happening.


How do I align the fender??

Open the door all the way, grab the fender at the very edge, (where the point of the door meets the body line on the fender) and GENTLY tug the fender OUT...(TOWARDS YOU). Not too hard or you could really send sh!t outta whack. This will help the door clear the fender.
