Up/Down or In/Out Adjustment
An adjustment of the striker in the up/down or in/out direc-
tions may be necessary for a number of reasons:
• Vehicle frame damage as the result of a collision.
• Installation of new door weather stripping.
• Customer complaints of excessive wind noise.
• Difficulty in opening or closing the door.
In order to adjust the door striker in an up/down or in/out
direction, perform the following procedure:
1. The door must be properly aligned.
2. Loosen the striker screws.

3. The floating cage plate can be moved slightly using the
ends of the striker screws. Move the floating cage plate
to the desired position.
Notice
It is important to use a flat-end rotary file in order
not to damage the tapped floating cage plate. The
striker screws and the tapped floating cage plate
are important attaching parts that could affect the
performance of vital components and systems.
4. If proper adjustment requires that the floating cage plate
be moved more than is possible, use an electric hand
drill and a 3/8-inch rotary file with a flat head in order to
enlarge the body opening in the direction required.
5. Tighten the striker screws to the correct position.
