Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?

Put the driver door back on to check the alignment. Not perfect but good enough for me. Put on the passenger fender and it over lapped the bottom of the door by 1/2". Loosened up the radiator support and inner fender to firewall, gave it a good tug and got all but 1/8" out. Fiddled with it for another hour and could get it where in needs to be, but it "pops" back. I remember straightening up some of the front sheet metal from a previous accident and think I may have "fixed" the previous body guys solutions. Will look at the old demo pictures and see if I can come with a clue. Also need to get the hood on so I don't spend a bunch of time on the fenders and doors only to find the hood won't fit.
