possible. Alignment adjustments can be made by
loosening the proper hinge bolts, aligning door to proper
position, and tightening bolts securely. See figure 12G,
for typical adjustments.
Striker Bolt Adjustment
With the use of J-23457, shown in figure 13G, the striker
bolt can be adjusted in any of three ways. See figure
14G.
1.
Up and down—
To adjust striker up or down, loosen
bolt, adjust to desired height, and tighten bolt
securely.
NOTE: This adjustment is important to
assure that the right proportion of door’s
weight will rest on striker bolt when door is
closed. If bolt is positioned too high on pillar,
rapid wear will occur to the lock cam; if too
low, an extra load will be placed on door
hinges as well as pull door downward and out
of alignment.
2.
In and Out—
To adjust striker in and out, loosen
bolt, adjust horizontally to desired position and
tighten bolt securely.
3.
Forward and Rearward—
To make this adjustment,
loosen striker bolt, shim to desired position, and
tighten bolt securely.

which it is applied. All rust, road dirt and grease or oil
must be completely removed as should all old cement
and bits of old weatherstrip. After removing all foreign
material from door opening surface, wipe down with
prepsol or its equivalent. Use only a good quality cement
which is made specially for weatherstrip installation,
following the manufacturer’s directions. Proceed as
follows:
