ABSTRACT:
A tool for adjusting the alignment of a vehicle door within its opening comprises a plate which has a recess at one end for engaging over the striker pin on the door jam and a second pin at a rearward end for engaging into the lock mechanism of the door. The plate is slightly cranked and of a sufficient length so that the door when the pin is engaged in the lock mechanism is held slightly ajar with the recess presented over the striker pin so that the pin can pivot about that recess. A hex rod extends outwardly from the surface in an opposed direction and is inclined slightly away from the forward end so that a wrench can be engaged over the hex rod to extend around the flange of the door with the free end of the wrench lying substantially in the plane of the plate member.
