Update on door slamming issue . . . door striker bushings
Hi everybody,
I posted a few weeks ago about how I was really struggling with having to slam my doors REALLY hard on my 1990 Ford F250, 7.3L, ext cab, 4x4.
I was not aware that there were supposed to be bushings on the striker bolts of my truck. I found some of the bushings at Auto Zone for $5 and have put them in.
However, even with these new bushings in, it seems the doors still need a little bit of adjustment.
What is the best way to adjust these doors so I am not double and triple-slamming them every time I get in the truck?
Thanks all!

Hey guys,
Thanks for the suggestions . . . but nope, no door sag . . .
I used to have an old Chevy Pickup that I was trying to restore and MAN did that thing have some major door sagging issues . . . I ended up selling it
Fortunately, this F250 doesn't seem to have too many bad rust problems.
I think it may be the catch mechanism that is inside the door that is making it so difficult to close . . . is that adjustable?

So glad I read this thread, I need those. Do these parts just wear out or does letting the door fly open play a role as well.
