Title: Door Hinge
Post by: davethediver on 30 November 2009, 23:31:22

The door on my drivers side seems to have dropped ever so slightly can hear it catching when closing the door :(

Is it easy enough to adjust it? Or is it new hinges?

Door check straps seem fine changed them within a day of getting the mig :y

Are the rest of the panels out of line slightly with the door?
It maybe that the stricker plate needs adjustment ;)
Allways look at the easiest first :)

Hadn't thought of that pete will check tomorrow, think it is the hinge though as it catches at the bottom i think. But will have a proper look in the morning :y

Hinges aren't changeable! You can try replacing the pins (I have a few) or order oversize pins from Vx and ream out the existing holes :y Let me know if you want a couple of pins and I'll drop them in the post. :y
