Reference Picture - Duster/Demon

Just tryin' to assist a fellow member. Good luck with your project!

Did you do any alignment with your doors? I'm assuming the car was painted recently.

My issue is, the door is really tough to pull off the door striker post, after it has been closed. I have another thread going into all of the detail about it. But, the basics are; door latch mechanism works fine, no problem latching when the door is open. New striker posts. I've tried different washers behind the striker post to change the geometry. I don't have weatherstripping in yet (I'm hoping that will provide a bit of outward force when the door is opened).

So, I'm down to the alignment. I'm going to try and move the door up, at the cowl. Hoping that will take some weight off the striker post.
