863 engine door wont close

[kenjo69]

I have a 98 863, it ended up tipping backwards onto the engine door. Didnt go right over. But now the door sags way down and needs to be lifted and pushed hard to close. I cant really tell if the door is bent or the hinges. Any easy ways to check?

It will be the hinges, you'll just have to look to see what part squashed in

maybe try a hydraulic jack under it to bend it back?

The door was only slightly bent but the door latch needed to be adjusted. Somehow it got bent and pushed. Closing fine now. Thanks for the help
