It's easier than that.
Measure the door gap at the top and bottom of the passenger door, back the right rear wheel up on a curb (right rear wheel only), measure the door gaps as well as open and close the passenger door. If the gaps move more than 1/8, you have problems. If you can't open or close the door, you have major problems. |

If he's in England probably using the inch. We got it from them after all. |
