What to do about a set of prefab doors?
I recently purchased a set of prefab doors for my 76 GMC, The doors are new but there not GM doors. I stuck them on but they fit kinda funny, as if there twisted. I tried every thing i could think of to make them fit right, but no luck. When i get the top to fit some what close, the bottom sticks out to much. Im about to pull my hair out, because the doors cost $100. bucks apiece. So if anyone knows how to adjust a door to make it fit better, i'dd appreciate the info.

Align the front to back and then get the bottoms flush. If the top still sticks out, open the door and use a 2x4 as a pry bar to tweak the top of the window frame in. If you stand the board up and put the bottom of the board through the window on the inside. Now you can push on the board and it will push the top of the window frame in toward the cab. Go slow until you get it where you need it....

ThanX guys for the responces, it seem as if you've done this before. I thought about doing that, but was affraid of door damage. Its almost as if the CO. that sold me the doors, had them all leaned up against one another, and it cosed them to buckle. But in anyevent (iceman7329) thanks for the offer, ill definentlly keep it in mind if i cant get mine to fit any better, beside i live in SW PA, about an hour south of Pittsburgh,PA.

The stock doors on my 82 Blazer had a gap in them. I worked with the body man and he showed me how it was done. Go slow and you will see great results...
