be very careful when you apply your front fender with that much gap at the rear of the door it might hit the fender when it's opened at the middle of the door about at the bottom of the "dent" body line

Aren't the doors the same for the larger trucks like F600s also?

Here is the pics of the drivers door. It shuts a little smoother also.

Looks like the driver's door could move up a smidge to match the "dent" lines on the cab

Weather stripping

I just got my truck from my brother and he started to redo the inside and took all the weather stripping off. I was wondering if someone could send me a pic of what direction it goes on. I have a 1977 Ford F100 XLT Ranger.
