Abstract
A hinge bracket is fastened to a motorcar body while the looseness or play at a hinge portion of the hinge bracket is removed, the looseness being in a direction in which a door load is applied. The apparatus for doing so includes a setting device for setting the door by moving a jig which holds the door, a fastening device for fastening a hinge bracket which is hingedly provided on the door to a motorcar body, and a play or looseness removing device for removing looseness at a hinge portion of a hinge bracket, the looseness being in a direction in which a door load is applied. The play or looseness is removed by lifting the hinge bracket at an end on the side of the hinge portion and/or by lowering the hinge bracket at an end opposite to the hinge portion.
