Door in F-350

First off thanks to all the info posted here about Water Pumps and Fuel Leak problems. I have fixed all of the above and she is back on the road.

The next question refers to the doors,so not sure if this is the right place to post.
Can the doors be adjusted or put back where they are supposed to be. My driver door has a droop to it and doesn't close and have been getting a water leak at top/front while sitting still.

Any suggestions

Thanks
JT

A little door info

I used this as a guide after getting my new door insulation lip seal installed.

Stovebolt Tech Tip -- How to Install Door Latches and Adjust Strikers

its not exactly like ours but in general it applies

Forgot to mention check your hing pins to make sure that they are still tight and have no play

I would check the hinge pins & bushing's first, both my doors on the passenger side need them done.

best way to check is have someone lift the door and look to see where the movement is, it's hard to do this by yourself.

If thats not it, then yes you can loosin the bolts, use a jack with a wood block and jack it back in place.

Good luck

Cutting would be the fastest way, if you have a air hammer you can knock the top of the pin off, and drop them out the buttom.
