1929 Pickup - Frame to body blocks

[Dkrahn]

Hi there.. So, I just got my A all restored. I notice the doors are not aligned properly. I had all new blocks and rubber shims replaced. There was a gap in the top right corner at least 1/2 inch on drivers side and 3/8 inch on the passenger side. I since climbed underneath, jacked up the truck and removed the back 2 blocks on each side. That helped some, but probably only half of where we need to be. Now with those 4 blocks out, I can stick my hand under the doors, which mean I probably have 1 inch gap there..but only 1/4 inch under the front of both doors..and only probably 1/8 inch between the frame of the cab and the running boards, (at the rear side of the door) where it goes upwards.

The hood alignment is fine. I am thinking my next steps need to be add maybe 1/2 shim at the firewall blocks, but really would like to be sure. I would think there are step by step procedures on installing these blocks, or a u-tube, so it is not so much hit and miss..

Any help would be most appreciated
