Hi all, is there any way of adjusting the door hinges ?

my passenger front door is slightly out of line, and fouls on the keep :evil: ... so it has to be slammed to shut properly :x

the gap between the door and body gets smaller towards the bottom, like it should be pushed/adjusted out at the bottom only !! (its driving me mad now :roll: )

Go to http://colorado4wheel.com/manuals/Jeep/KJ/ and get a copy of the FSM. In the Body section there are instructions on door adjustment.

Well .. I sorted the door alignment so it shuts fine with no probs now ... BUT ... I had to make some shims to fit under the bottom hinge that bolts to the door to do it :? WTF's up with that ?
