Question Need Help

On the truck that I am working on the drivers door was folded forward somewhere in it's life. I have been trying to straighten it out with some luck. For the most part it is back in the orginal position, but I am having trouble with the door gaps. I can't seem to get the door far enough forward and it is hitting on the striker area. I did adjust it with a 2by and a hammer and it helped a bunch but has does anyone know the measurements from the hinge to the rear post? I have tried to compare the pass side to the drivers but something is still amiss. I have thought about making a fixture off the pass side and fliping the measurements for the drivers side...think that would work? I want to do this before I complete the floor so that I can adjust things before it gets to tight.

Bernie
