Default anyone install a door and aligned it?

Any tips? i gtta replace my door due to someone hittin mine.

So lemme get this straight.

take fender off, remove the 4 door hinge bolts, take door out.

have friend hold new door in place, and but bolts in, but not snug. And then how do u align it? Or is it something thats self explanatory when i look at it?

Or is there a trick to it?

line it up and tighten it then close it and if it hits the striker hard determine wether it needs to go up or down then align it tighten it again and repeat until perfection

If your by yourself you can use a milk crate to hld the door up for you while you move it all around to get it just right..
