[Tigers] Door Latch Adjustment

                For the most part this is a PITA process – trial and error until you like the results.

I like to put masking tape along an edge or edges so I can see small position changes.

 

Good luck

Subject: [Tigers] Door Latch Adjustment

 

I'm having some difficulty adjusting the passenger side door strike to get acceptable latching, release and shut lines. With the strike removed, the door swing and alignment looks good. So it's possible accumulated mechanical wear of the latch, strike or both is at play. As the latch strike can be adjust for up/down, in/out and a small amount of rotation, before continuing I was curious to ask whether anyone can recommend a process for aligning the latch components that is more efficient than trial and error?

 

Thanks
