64 C10 door hard to shut

I know these older truck doors don't simply click shut like a modern truck, but I have to slam both doors pretty hard to get them to latch all the way.

Besides lubrication, whet else can help? thanks

Search on forum OR on Google. Either should send you to a discussion of cures on this forum.

If its not the weatherstripping, its possible that your bear claw/door latch isn't adjusted, your doors aren't fit properly, or possibly the cab mounts are worn and causes misalignment with panel fit.
