Mine close super easily too. It drives me nuts when someone who drives some other brand gets in and then slams the door like a Bengal tiger was trying to eat him.

WHAM!

Yep, I wish everything was "overbuilt" like our old Ford truck doors......

I don't have to lock my 71 with the key. Push the **** down, close the door, and it's locked. My doors also seat very nicely, but the passenger side gets stuck when it's wide open sometimes. It takes a lot of pressure to get it started, then it clicks into place. I haven't had a chance to investigate yet.

Those locks that pop up when you shut the door really suck on a crew cab. I had to install some remote power locks on mine. Much better!
