Swing Gate: Adjustments: Adjustment: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Jeep Liberty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Swing gate adjustment measurements should be taken from stationary or welded body panels like the roof, rocker or quarter panels.
- During adjustment procedures, it is recommended that all the hinge fasteners be loosened except for the upper most fasteners. Adjustments can be made using the upper bolts to hold the door with final torque of the fasteners occurring after correct door positioning is achieved.
- A suitable body sealant should be used when removing or moving the hinges.
- Remove the spare tire. (Refer to REMOVAL ).
