Door Issue

[WranglerGenny]

So putting the doors back on today and notice that the top portion drops in, but the bottom doesnt. Any particular way to fix this or adjustment of the door angle?

Did you mount a foot rest in the lower hinge when the doors were off?

I've had that happen before. It's definitely taking the door back out and trying to get a better angle on it. You'll get it.

Yes. The Jpggz

You likely moved the hinge when stepping on it. You’ll have to loosen the bolts and move it back up.

I’m away from home, but whatever bolts secure the hinge to the frame.

Whoa there! First see if the inserts in the hinge is not centered. The foot peg may have tilted it a bit. And are you certain that it’s not the top one? If you put mirrors in the top hole that could be where it’s askew.

Jpeggz will do this. Don't know if they fixes it, but they will do this to your hinges every time. I sold mine, even after posting about it on here. They sold. I ended up fabricating my own solution for permanent doors off mirrors. The Jpeggz will continue to destroy your hinges even more over time. Stop using them now.

Edit**** Foot pegs basic ones at least from Amazon will not do this.

If your gaps are right, it's that bottom hing to body;
your bottom gap all ready looks low.

Regular hinge foot pegs will not change the geometry of the hinges. I've used them for over a year and my hinges have not moved. Stop using the Jpeggz take them off and realign your hinges now - you might need some help and the proper hand tools to do this, but if shouldn't take more than a few minutes.

This is the perfect picture showing exactly what the Jpeggz do to your hinges. Thank you for sharing.

Gonna say it one last time just to make sure everyone who has these issues can find this answer.

The Jpeggz will take your hinges off alignment (when you screw them on!!! - not when they sit in the hinges). Your hinges/nuts/bolts will get torn up if you keep using this product and realigning it - you have the biggest potential to ruin the paint on your hinges adding more issues down the line.

Take off your Jpeggz - align your hinges back to factory spec - and STOP using those JPEGGZ

Good luck Jeepers!
