How do I get my doors to shut?

Thanks to all. The door rubber is mostly original (or at least old) so it is not a thickness problem, just an adjustment problem. I found the sweet spot for the drivers door. It was damn cold work, even in the garage.

WALL HANGER? ALLUMINUM HEAD

Good to know, I had not really thought about it. I liked the idea of hanging it on my garage wall next to the iron head I have hanging there. Only worth it if it was within pickup distance.

I got the e-mail also. Deleted it. As a rule of thumb, I never open an e-mail that is a link only. Nearly always spam.
