It's a two person job.....

Slide door skin back..adust for space at lower edge of door tighten lower bolt.
Slide door skin back to check. Then repeat for top.
You should get pretty close first attempt.
Remember to re-adjust window height.

If you really can't get lined it up then you may need new bushings, but I thought that would be apparent. (play in the hinge)

A Trolley Jack and a piece of wood will come in handy for supporting the door.
