I put my trunk lid back on today. But, the right side sits higher than the left side. Is there a way to adjust the hinge down? It looks like it sits too high. Thanks, Dan:3gears:
You didn't say where it sits higher...at the front corner or aft corner or...??? You can put a shim between the trunklid and the hinge at the AFT bolt position of the hinge to decklid and it will pull it further down (I know, sounds ass backwards but try it!) when closed. Also, sometimes the rubber bumpers at the aft side (if replaced) are incorrect which allows it to lean one way or another. Make sure they are correct. You can also go thicker on one side to load it up which moves the other side down but this is more for the back edge to quarter adjustment (ie latch will want more to lock but because the bumper holds the one side the other side is forced downward). Alignment is a combination of the hinges and latch and bumper adjustment. Lots of times the hinges themselves are worn. Don't forget these cars were never perfect to begin with... Good luck...
