Need body gap info off a 07 ram or alike.


Locations:

-Driver and Pass. side front fender gap measurements?? Particularly to where the fender matches to up to each door. (Any other will be a bonus)

-On the lower air valance on non sport front bumpers. Any gaps between where the piece is up to the chrome part of the bumper?


(The insurance company used aftermarket parts, and I believe even after a 2nd attempt at adjustments still aren't quite the same as OEM. The driver side fender and lower valance were replaced with aftermarket... I think both fender gaps and valance should fit tighter..)

 

Man, Im slow. Get me some pics of what you want and Ill help.........

 

Driver side front fender to driver door. There is a gap between the two and I need a OEM untouched reference please.

Measurments will work, and or a picture even better.

 

The spec from the factory manual is a 5.0mm gap plus or minus 1.5mm, parallel to 1.0mm

 

Thank you for the info. Will check it in the daylight tomorrow.

When you say factory manual, are you talking a shop mechanic manual? I'd like to get my hands on one of those.

 

ya, I work at a Dodge dealer. All the manuals are on the computor now but you can order copies in book form but they are not even close to cheep.

 

The factory side, which may have been adjusted to make aftermarket side look better is at 1/4". The aftermarket side is at 6/16". At the very least I think both sides should be the same?

Where can I get a pc version?

 

I bought a bootleg copy of the repair manual on eBay for $10 like this one. Just a pdf of the entire thing on a cd, 2,895 pages. I pulled some gap numbers from my manual for you:

Bumper to headlamp: 19mm +/- 4
Bumper to fender: 14mm +/- 4
Fender to hood: 6mm +/- 2
Front door to fender: 5mm +/- 1.5
