Hey everyone. In a fit of old-truck rage, rushing from the driver seat to the engine compartment when already late for work (turned out to be a simple problem) I created a new problem. I over-opened my door, denting it near the hinge. Now it sags about an inch and doesn't latch unless I close it from the outside pushing up. Any body mechanics out there who can tell me how to fix this?
Not that it likely matters, but it is a '91 XLT 4x4.

 

Hey Rob an welcome to the f150 forum! I myself last week just fixed the same problem. Personally, I would remove the fender before opending door to minimumly damage anything else. Next open the door an most likely one of your hinges are bent as mine was. Just unscrew 2 volts holding hinge an bent back into place an fixed like new!

 

The hinges do appear bent. I tried tightening them earlier, but didn't think to remove the fender! Perfect.
How did you do yours, a bench vise and hammer or something more sophisticated?
