Lower Door Adjustment

If the door does not latch properly after installation, if

there is interference between the panels, or if a

non-uniform gap around the door is observed when the

door is closed (example: door position appears to be low

and too far rearward), the position of the door on its hinges

may need to be adjusted. To do this, proceed as follows:
1. Loosen (do not remove) the four bolts on the door

hinges using the provided #T50 Torx head driver.

Hinge Bolt Locations

NOTE:

Do not adjust the body mounted hinges, or any part of the

door latch, as modifications to these parts will affect

installation of the full door.
2. With the bolts loose, the door can be moved forward

by pushing the door handle toward the front of the

vehicle, and/or upward by grabbing the door handle

and lifting towards the roof.

3. Once the gaps between the door and vehicle body are

uniform around the entire door, tighten the door

hinge bolts to 20.3 ft· lb / 27.5 N·m (Max Torque:

27.3 ft· lb / 37 N·m).

Upper Door Adjustment
After installation of the half-doors, if water leaks or wind

noise is observed, the seal of the upper half-door to the

door opening may need to be adjusted.
To determine if the upper half-door needs to be adjusted,

proceed as follows:
1. Determine which door is affected.
2. Open the affected door and hold a dollar-size piece of

paper along the top of the door opening against the

vehicle near where the leak/noise was observed.

Make sure half of the paper is above the area where

the door seal contacts the door opening, while the

other half is below.

3. Close the door on the paper, then pull the paper

upward. If the paper moves with little to no effort, the

upper half-door will need to be adjusted in that area

to increase seal compression.

Performing A Paper Test

There is another optional test that can be performed using

a flashlight and the help of another person.
One person should be inside the vehicle, and move the

flashlight around the periphery of the door seal, shining

outward. The other person should stand outside of the

vehicle and check for light passing by the seal. If light is

seen through the seal area, the door will need to be

adjusted.

CAUTION!

Upon first installation of the half-doors, slowly close

each door to check for body contact. Improper setting of

the door hinges can cause extreme non-uniform

conditions, and result in damage to the body around

the door.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

To adjust the seal compression, proceed as follows:
1. Open the door and lift the upper half-door up and

away from the lower half. Lay the upper half-door on

a clean, dry surface.

2. Using an 8 mm open-end wrench (not provided),

loosen the nut located inside the bottom of the upper

half-door post, closest to where the “paper test”

detected a gap.

Nut Location Inside Bottom Of Post

3. Using a 3 mm Allen wrench (not provided), rotate the

screw on the side of the post counterclockwise (while

holding the wrench on the loosened bolt) to increase

the seal compression. If needed, rotate clockwise to

reduce seal compression.
