Endgate glass adjustment.

Hi, I have just replaced the end-gate glass on my 2dr Blazer 4WD. The previous one literally exploded when I attempted to open it up. The new glass needs to move to the left just a bit to make a good fit. This is an OEM replacement, not an aftermarket piece. The hinge attachments to the body provide no adjustment. However, where the glass and the hinge attach to each other there is a nut on the underside that can be loosened. I was wondering if that might be where I could adjust the fit.

Many Thanks,
Rob

Thanks for the reply. That video isn't what I am looking for. That video covers adjusting how tightly the glass fits against the moldings to stop the rattles and squeaks. I am looking for a fit adjustment, right to left, left to right etc....
