sliding door alignment

So how do you do it? My slider is popping open pretty regular now, going by the lines on the bodywork the door has dropped a bit. So where do you adjust the alignment?
Any help gratefully received before I blindly muck around with it and make it worse :lol:
Thanks, Lloyd

Blimey, that was a bit easier than i thought. The door just moves up and down on slotted bolt holes. I was imagining having to to move the rollers and stuff like that.
Door opens and shuts nice and easy now, can't get it to bounce back open, and also i can't push it open from inside by just leaning on it :lol: Shut lines are about spot on too. Proof will be in the driving, especially speed humps. But signs are good.
The latch seems to still be square, there is a bit of wear on one bit of it where the strike bolt wasn't lining up but this doesnt seem to be affecting it.
So, cheers for the link Micky :ok And cheers to MM for posting in the first place :ok

p.s. Also found no rust under the runner cover :D just some paint flaking
