Tech Tips


  • Use the same procedure for the RH and LH sides.

  • The procedure listed below is for the LH side.

  • B006L3MC01
    *1 Centering Bolt
    *2 Standard Bolt

    Centering bolts are used to mount the door hinge to the vehicle body and door. The door cannot be adjusted with the centering bolts on. Substitute the centering bolts for standard bolts when making adjustments.

  • A bolt without a torque specification is shown in the standard bolt chart.
