Door Jam Shims
 
For those of you who take the top off of your Blazer, how tight are your door jam striker plates?

Fairly tight. When I open the door, I need to give it a slight bump with my shoulder.
It took quite a while to get the right shim pack thickness.
Too thick and the door is too difficult to open, and too thin the door will rattle.

Ahhh, the old shoulder bump, I'm well acquainted with that maneuver!

My doors have just a bit of drag on them, top has been off for 20+ years.

Thanks, that’s where I’m at. My driiver’s door needs a shoulder bump and my passenger door is rattling. I’ve got some more shims ordered.
