Door hinges etc.
My 96 150 driv er side door doesn't seem to shut right.
There is a lot of wind noise and such. At highway speeds it's a little annoying. If i put my eye up along the door frame I can see light between the frame and the door gasket.
The gasket is good.
Anyone know how to fix this?
is there adjustment for door closing?

MY drivers door in a 95 F-150 does the same. I noticed that when the drivers door is open, it has a lot of play to it. It looks as though the bolt on the top hinge is wearing down and not holding the door as tight as it should. I'm debating trying to find a bolt that is the perfect thickness, and replacing the bolt. Not sure if it'll work or not though.

They aren't bolts, they're pins in the hinges. You can buy replacement kits at most auto parts stores. They come with new pins and bushings.
You can adjust the doors by loosening the hinge bolts and moving the door.
