Your upper is wide but even, you might have to leave it...give it a few whacks and see what happens. The doors and cabs vary some and sometimes you have to live with a wider than ideal gap. You can remove the spot welds front and rear to raise the frame but that’s drastic and usually not warranted. |

Re: 72 Sierra Grande Door gap part 2
You can easily close the upper corner gap evening out the pillar gap with a few hits. Remove the wing window first.
Then shape the rear and upper with a few hits. |

They say like 3/16" all around, but that sure wasn't happening. I spent a couple days moving each door around to get it lined up as best I could and close right.

Re: 72 Sierra Grande Door gap part 2
Here is a thread from me dealing with door alignment issues.
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=772583 Would need to see the gap all around to tell what is the best thing to do.
