Hi guys my s13 trunk is not really aligned, left side is more lower than the right side. I checked the stoppers they seem fine not squished, are they adjustable kinda thing?
but yea i need some tips to get my trunk leveled the same.

Yeah the stoppers should be adjustable so you can get the hatch level with the quarter panels on either side. Whichever one is higher/lower, adjust the stop as necessary.

Thanks for the reply, i apologize if im new to this but how exactly do i adjust the stoppers? i tried spinning it, it doesnt lengthen or shorten it. I dont wanna pull it out too. So maybe before i got wreck stuff up, i could ask you for tips.


thanks!

Hmm at least I thought they spun to adjust like the ones for the hood. Maybe yours are old and worn?
I know you can buy new ones. Heck I even thought it was the same part as the hood bumpers ha.
I'd check mine, but it has been removed for the truck conversion, and is sitting in a garage 2 hours away.
