Hey guys. Have a 73 cheyenne c20 and I have to really slam the door to get it shut. In order to repair do I have to take the whole door off? Or is there an easier fix? Thanks in advance! !:)

Thanks farmer! Would you recommend this? Would it damage the door latch in the future?

along with that check your door alignment. If your, hinge pins and bushings are wearing out it will make it harder to close

No it will actually help it last longer. I've done this to 2 of my Burbs and the Peterbuilts at work.

I finally got hearing aids, now, there is a rattle in the left door of My 93, I will pex them posts, see if that`ll fix it.
I`ve pressed and shoved every part and piece on that door, only time it`ll quit the rattle is when I shove downwards real hard onit.
