Adjusting sliding door fit

Post by rfarey »

Hi All

I noticed the other day that the back end of my sliding door is a little low and would like to raise it up a little to line up with the rear quarter panel.
Anyone got any tips on how to do this before I take the side of the van off?????

Cheers

Use the level adjustment bolts.
There are quite a few bolts that hold the door to the brackets..they all have some movement.

before you do anything check that all the bushes and rollers are in good shape
