Door Gap - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need some info about the door gaps. The aft end of both of my doors is too large after doing all the metal work on the lower section of the cab (lower f/r pillars, outer floors, cab corners, kick panels) I have waited to put the rockers in until I got some good doors. With the doors on the aft door gap is too large.

How do I adjust the rear door gap, with shims behind the hinges?

On my drivers side I used shims behind the hinges to get the door gap I wanted.
You can see the shims I made on my build thread (post #195) http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=318544&page=8
