M35A2 cab question(PIC'S)

[chuck500cc]

My doors close good, but at the top of the glass when the windows are rolled up all the way niether window fits right. Smaller gap at the botoom of the window and it tapers out at the top/front. The back of both door windows snag on the windowjam twords the back of the cab.

I used a 4x4 and bent up the door a bit (used it against the cab and bottom of the door) and mine shut good now.. I said good.. not great. Great = a deuce that was never made.

My doors close fine. It's just seams like the cab is bent or there is some rubber bumpers under the cab that need replacing. I looked at it but I don't know how to appraoch it. Door fit good at the cab and shut well.

No pics of ours but I noticed the same gaps this w/e on our M35A2C with hard top.

I'm sure there is something broken or wore out that needs replacing, just waiting on someone to chime in.

If the doors are fitting the cab OK then you need to asjust the windshield a bit. Moving it forward or backward can adjust the gaps some at the tops of the door windows.

The windshield is plum. Shuold it tilt back a bit?

It should be plumb... You window stops can be adjusted to some extent to help the window stop "squarely" If that doesnt help you prolly need new window channels, but then again so does almost every deuce on the road.

I have door kits in the store for replacing the runs and weather stripping if it needs or you want it to be done.

"Well there's yer problem! Yer door handle's a missin'!!"
JUST KIDDING!
Most every deuce I have seen has that problem to one extent or another.
I am going to work on that very thing in the very near future. I will post my progress (or lack of) here, minus applicable swear words used. I will also post pics.

To chime in on this post, aside from our passenger's side door being sticky on our hard top conversion, I have noticed that it has to be shut harder than I would like. Is there a way to adjust the door latch and/or how it hangs?

Open up the door panel and check the roller and guide hardware.
A little lube will also help.
You can also adjust the 2 window stops.

The window actually is in good shape. Its the door locking mechanism with the latch etc not wanting to shut properly.
