I just installed new weatherstripping on my rear cargo/barn doors. Now i CANNOT get these doors to shut properly. Ive worked three days adjusting those doors and i can get it almost there but the passenger side door sags in twords the middle line. Im loosing my mind! Im sorry in advance that i dont have pictures, its dark and rainy out. If ANYONE can please give me some advice of things to try.

what weather-stripping did you use? I used some from Steele rubber without issue. were the doors aligned without sag before?

It’s the weatherstripping from LMC. The doors seemed fine. They shut but it also had no weatherstripping so I’m sure that makes a difference. If you don’t mind telling me the weatherstripping that you used.

Also some holes for the pegs were too large or had been repaired with Bondo. So the stripping was a pain.
