paint sticks and popsicle sticks. When I set up my doors I used paint sticks (both the big ones and the little ones) and popsicle sticks as spacers. the wood is soft enough to not damage the paint and allows you to wedge something in there to get the rough adjustments.

Thanks Daze I appreciate the tip. I have found out that no matter what, you will tweek the aligment at least 30 times, Ha! I had to start from scratch replacing the hinges from a donor 62. It will definetly try your patience.
