Default Re: Hood adjustment

Shimming the body probably will be needed. You must be very carefull when shimming the body or door alignment will be effected in a bad way. If the doors line up and open and shut good now, And I chose to shim the body, I would add the same amount of shims at each shim point from front to back. If some of the body bolts are tightened more than others this can also play havoc with door alignment. Order multiple sets of rubber shims from a model A vendor, this is what I do . Steel washers are thinner but could be used .
