is your door appear aligned with the cab depth wise? if so you can move the striker out if you dont mind the sticking out a bit until it wears a bit
Or you can adjust the flange the weatherstrip is on with a mallet to sit in a bit


The striker as all the way out. I tried about 10 different positions, and center out works the best. I thought about modifying it so that it could sit further out, but I decided against it. I like the idea of using a mallet to move the seal in further, I will try that for sure. I think that's the fix that I was looking for. thanks!
