Door doesn't shut with new S10 door seals
Hi guys, Gals;
This was my weekend project, a little clean up and putting the new S10 door seals. Everything went smooth and look nice but door doesn't shut all the way. It seems the rubber is too thick at the door hinge area. I got the seals from GM pauls.Is there any trick or modification I need to do? The second pic is just to share with you the difference in paint with 5$ spray paint since I don't have the $$$ for ground up job. |

I think I read awhile back on here,that it takes sometime to break in the s10 door seals.That does look pretty extreme.Looks like a nice truck.

I did the same thing. My doors shut very hard to start. They still shut pretty hard, but they are getting better with time. I put mine on last summer.

I put on new 67-72 door seals in january. They are starting to close easier as time goes on. I still have to give the doors a good push. I do not know what the difference is with S-10 seals,They should get easier. My new cowl seal was the same way at first.

My concern is that even with hard push i can't close them all the way. I guess I just have to wait and drive it locally only. Thanks for the feedbacks.

Adjust your doors/hinges out a little bit.
