Help Adjusting Door

[Lockedhearts]

After some driving, now when I get in my truck (95 PS) the driver door is not wanting to shut. I can do it fine from outside the truck. I know it needs to be adjusted. If I am thinking right , I can adjust the catch (on the truck) with just a wrench? Since I have to lift up in the door to get it to shut securely, maybe I need to adjust the door itself? Unsure if or how to do this.

Door pin bushings could be worn or gone.
With the door open, see if you can lift it up.
With the door closed, the body lines should match, if the striker is right. Also check to see if the striker has a bushing.

Temporary fix if needed

Go to autozone and get a pack of body shims.loosen the bottom hinge bolts on the door and shim till door lines up and closes again

Before you replace the striker bolt (It's a 50 star) trace the outline with a dry-erase board marker. Let's you install the new one in the exact same location and then wipe the markings away.
