My Silverado's doors close like brand new. It's hard to believe they came from the same factory! Is it that hard to get the doors to shut without slamming them? LMC Truck to the rescue?
Replaced the door strikers and bushings and positioned them better and lubed the hinges on my Suburban. Made all the difference in the world between needing to slam the door vs shut it. That coupled with new door pins(which I still intend to do on mine), and the doors should work like new on that Suburban.
