Door seals cause door problems.

I put all new weather stripping on my 78 crew cab last summer.

New door seals on all four doors. Back doors open and close fine.

Front doors bind on hinge side seal and are a pain to close/slam.

I have moved the hinge side of door out as far as I can and pulled the door strike/post out as far as I can and I still have to slam the door to get it to latch.

I ended up cutting the squishy part of the seal off along the hinge side.

Doors close way better now, but I am not happy I did it.

Anyone else ever delt with this and what can I do to correct it?
