A guy came thru my emissions shop on Monday with an 89 F150 gasser with less than 70K on it. The doors shut like it was brand new.
Upon my comment, he pointed me toward the HELP section at the local parts emporium for some replacement plastic "bushings". They are made specifically for our trucks, and slip over the striker bars that bolt to the door frame. I had forgotten that they came equipped that way. (Mine had been "nekkid" for some time!
Less than 2 minutes a side, including adjustments and the doors close like new with no rattles at all. Parts were less than $5.
All you guys prolly know about this, but I didn't.
Have a great Easter.
