On both sides there is a short bolt out of the whole door hinge bolt kit. I know it is top hinge top row I just cant remember if I took it out of the hole towards the inside or towards the outside. I am sure it is short to clearing something inside the window crank area and if I get it wrong I would have to take the door back off. Any ideas?

The second picture is a body shim, used for alignment of body panels, goes under the panel around the bolt.

Thread pitch doesn't look the same as the other bolts. You sure it's from the hinge area?

All the bolts were the same on two trucks of mine, I just messed with the doors on both.

Looks to me like the bolt that holds the window track, or maybe the bottom of the vent window.

All the other ones are part number 3846202, and provided by either Lang or Ferndale Fasteners (same as the fender nose bolts).
