Door Alignment Issues (Sagging)

[53GMC]

Hey guys....

i have not been having door issues thus far in my build...i relocated my cab back about two inches over the past weekend and for some reason now, my driver side door sags towards the striker plate. I have to pick up on the handle about 1/2" to get it to align with the strkier plate....any advice...i didn't hit the door when moving the cab and the cab is level....any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks again

you relocated the cab so you changed to way it sat on frame thus changing the door alignment.

You have some structural problems if its out of line after the move. Did you physically move the mounts or just set it back ? I would jack up the front pillar and see if it realigns. If it does then fix the area thats weak.

thanks guys...ill try to find out what the issue is.....thinking maybe there is a weak area on my front hinge panel of the truck...or the rear driver side could be a little higher when i moved my mounts back...didnt think so...but possible i could have done that....trial and error i guess guys..haha

thanks again..

I would start by looking at the hinges, look at the pins when you lift up on the rear edge of the door. If they move what so ever then they need to be rebuilt.

The hinges and pins "jiggle" a little bit but they didn't seem to do it enough to cause the door to sag as much as it does...but i will be checking them out some more....i believe i have a cab height adjustment as well as hinge rebuild might be in order...
