PRELIMINARY CHECKS
(1) Close the sliding door, visually checking C-post
striker alignment entry into latch. Striker at this
point must not affect alignment. Striker should go
straight into the latching mechanism.
(2) On vehicles with left sliding doors, check the
fuel door blocker striker entry into latch. Striker at
this point must not affect alignment.
(3) Check C-post and B-post for door to aperture
gaps and door to door gaps. All gaps should be 5 mm
  1 mm.
(4) Check door for height using character lines as
a reference. Also check roof contour as a controlling
factor.
Using the procedures noted below, adjust the side
door in the order the individual steps are called out.
DOOR FLUSHNESS ADJUSTMENT
(1) Check sliding door flushness at the C-pillar
striker.
(2) Adjust the C-pillar striker in or out untill the
door is flush.
(3) Check upper B-pillar flushness to A-pillar
cover.
(4) Loosen one nut on upper hinge and adjust door
in or out untill the door is flush.
(5) Check flushness at upper C-pillar.
(6) If upper C-pillar flushness is out of specifica-
tion use a heavy rubber malet on the door assembly
until door is in spec.
DOOR GAP ADJUSTMENT - UP/DOWN
UP/DOWN ADJUSTMENT

at the top of the door by checking the alignment of
the top contour of the door to the quarter panel.(2) Fully open the sliding door.
(3) Verify that all center hinge bolts are tight.
(4) Adjust the rear of the sliding door up by turn-
ing the center hinge bolt clockwise (Fig. 19).
(5) Close the door and check the sliding door align-
ment.
(6) Fully open door and apply thread lock nut onto
the center hinge bolt. Tighten nut until till it butts
up against the welded nut on the center hinge.

essary to hold the center hinge bolt to prevent it
from turning while tightening nut.
(7) Verify alignment. Re-adjust as necessary.
DOOR GAP ADJUSTMENT - FORE/AFT
FORE/AFT ADJUSTMENT
(1) Check height of sliding door at the B-post and
C-post to determine which area is contributing the
greatest to the incorrect gaps.
(2) If the sliding door is high at the C-post;
(a) Open the door to mid-point of travel.
(b) Mark outline of center hinge on sliding door
to assist in making adjustments.
(c) Loosen center hinge bolts (Fig. 19).
(d) Move hinge fore or aft to position the sliding
door into the correct location.
(e) Tighten center hinge bolts.
