Will the weight of the door glass, trim and electronics weigh enough to effect the hinges? I have set my gaps perfect, but they are perfect for bare doors. Once i add interior panels, windows, regulators, motors, etc...will it hang lower?
67 camaro if its helpful info.

A lot of guys put weight in the door to simulate the finished weight. Yes it will drop a skooch.

I always set gaps with loaded doors, but, to be honest, the glass will only add 12 to 15 lbs. The door panel is nothing to worry about.
Here is a calculator I use if I don't have glass to weigh.
