So far I have tried moving the striker pin out, in, up, down, and it does not seem to make any difference - but what you say makes sense, so I will try the outward movement again. When I move the striker pin outward, then the door projects past the cab, which does not seem right to me. I think a lot has to do with the aftermarket door seal being poorly designed.
