After lunch I bolted up the glove box door to check its fit. I remembered it being pretty bad before we dissassembled the truck. The top right corner was overlapping it's jamb if I adjusted it up enough so the bottom edge was flush.
Cut lines laid out.
After cutting it still wouldn't shut all the way. The hinge brace was hitting the jamb, so I had to reshape those areas for better clearance.
Fitting flush now.
1/8" welding rod will fill in the gap.
Right edge still needs trimming.
The ash tray fit worst than the glove box door, with no way to adjust it from the factory.
The hinge rod is crooked...
The inner hinge bracket fit the dash so tightly that it couldn't be adjusted outward.
After trimming the edges of the bracket to allow ample adjustment.
Starting to reshape the edges to fit flush.
Fits level now after reworking the hinge rod. Gaps still need to be tightened up with welding rods.
Way closer than it was, ran out of time to finish them today.
Before dissassembly.
