Hood Alignment

Need some help. I can't get the hood on the Blazer to line up. I've shimmed the driver's fender to make the measurements match the 71, but I still have a huge gap on the passenger side at the front end only and the latch won't even come close to making. Any idea's? I've tried preloading the springs, adjusting all the bolts on both the 6 in the fenders and the 4 in the hood. Still no joy. No matter how I adjust it, I still have a huge gap on the leading edge of the passenger side. Closest to the grill I mean. Any help would be great.
