Crew cab door adj
Hi all,
Any thoughts on how to tighten up the door strikers on a crew cab?
They rattle a lot, and do not look adj.
Is this something the weatherstrip mod will help?

Thanks.
Tom.

If the door does not sit flush while latched, move the striker closer to the middle of the truck. The weatherstrip mod may help, but if the latch piece is worn badly, probably not. Note that most door striker bolts are VERY tight - use the correct bit and approach to loosen them, lest you strip out the head.

Thanks. I thought I tried to adj last year and the striker didn't want to move. I might mess with it tomorrow. Latches could be worn also. Doors are fitting good as far as gaps and flushness.
