Hi all,
I am trying to get an understanding on the movement of the cab door hinges when I am trying to align my cab doors. I can`t seem to find any documents on this.
I understand that the hinges can be moved up or down or in and out. What I can`t understand is, if I pull the hinges away from the body what affect does this have on the alignment ? Or can the top hinge be in and bottom hinge out or visa versa ,what affect does this have..will it twist the door ?
I have made some adjustments to the hinges but found that the top back corner of the cab door is very tight against the frame,
If I take the striker plate off, should the door just close easily into the frame, it appears to spring out a little , still has old door rubbers,so not fussed to replace at the moment.
Just trying to get an understanding about the adjustments
Your advice would be appreciated
Regards
Klaus
