(IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) gents I need your help. I have been busting my arse on this ride and welding in reinforcement brackets that I can no longer close my doors. Tried cutting near the lift points. Car jacked up doors work car down doesn't work. Please offer guidance and personal experience as the car before opened and closed without issue
Thank you : (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

It's all about counteracting. Shrinking forces.. I use to show the Lincoln electric movie about Mr shrink to my welding students. It is actually still relavint even though it's from the 60s.. This can and will be remedied.. Best of luck and stay patient it can be fixed.
