Door alignment blues
I'm installing my doors, both Goodmark. Rebuilt hinges, new seal, new cab corners and rockers already in. The gap around the door looks great, the top of the door fits tight against the seal, the bottom is flush with the rocker.
BUT, what happened here. The middle of both doors, where the handles used to be, won't come within a 1/4" of the round rubber bumper unless I really press against the door. No way will I be able to close this puppy! It seems like both doors are bowed in the middle @$#&^? Is there a 'quick fix' for this? Has anyone used an expansion bar and streched the middle of the cab to fit to the door, or am I looking in the wrong direction?? Thanks,
