Hey Guys and pointers on how to close the gap between door and front fender the fender looks off its a tiny bit wider on top than the bottom thanks for any help 87gn joe
 
Any updates on this? I have a drivers side door that is rubbing the front fender near the middle of the door when door is opend/closed. I have read that there is no front rear adjust of the door hinges and that perhaps the fender bolts and some radiator support bolts need to be loosned to chage this adjustment?
 
door hinges are infinitely adjustable and door gap to quarter andoff rocker should be aligned with the door hinge bolts at the jamb, top and bottom of door alignment for flush is adjusted next with the door hing bolts into the door , the striker in jamb should only be used to set final latched position for flush alignment not for up or down ,
then the fender goes on and use shims at top tall bolt for height adjust , the door to fender gap is set with shims under the rad support upper bushing once you have that gap use shims between the fender and pillar the jamb to set the fender flush to the door
