mvusse Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 The solution to the Blasted TORX! screws is a set of Torx sockets. As for the hinges, the factory used shims between the doors and the hinges to align the doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

64 Cheyenne Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Get rid of the Torks fastners. Put real bolts back in, makes alignment with a flat ratchet super easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfpdm Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I know when I did this, the torx sockets with the ratchet was too big to fit in there for me. I ended up using the torx socket with a box end wrench slid over it. At the time, I was thinking that the best way to do it, which would also be the most work, would be pull the front fender off so you could close the door and then tighten down the torx from the front. I didn't want to go through the trouble seeing how I just did the 97+ swap and to pull that fender would mean taking the header apart on that side and hoping that I didn't have to take it completely off. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
