Door rubbing
So the drivers door on my 94 pickup is rubbing on the fender i know its because the door and fender are a little messed up from hitting something. So my big question is how hard is it to take off the fender and replace the door hinges I'm guessing there the main problem because to me they look quite a bit bent. i have some better hinges off a truck from a junk yard i just don't want to be taking the stuff off and not knowing what all needs to be done so I'm looking for any advice that u guys can give me....... thanks in advance for any help that u guys can throw me

if you must change the hinges then all you have to do is take the 4 bolts on the door take the door off and then take the bolts off the body fender dont have to come off or if you want to and the hinges are working good still take a flat head screw driver and bend the fender out a lil bit done and done

X2.. fender doesn't have to come off to pull the door. Very easy... 10 mins, to pull the door. If you have electric accessories, pull the kick panel and you'll see the "snorkel" that the wiring is fed through into the A-pillar. IIRC, there's connectors there to disconnect the door without gutting the wiring inside it.
If the door is closing properly to the body, I'd adjust the fender position... not the door. Just as simple - 10mm bolts. I use two popscle sticks (flat sides together) as a door gap gauge.
