Also, I don't know if it's the body line of the door or the front fender that I got from Classic Industries also, but the fender line is out farther than the door line. I pushed the fender in as far as I could while tightening to try and get it to line up better, but it still hangs out some. Then again. that might all be because the rear of the door is angled out a little. Not sure.
I've heard that this is a problem with the door shells. They are a little too "thick". I'm trying the reskin route first to see if I have better luck w/that and the drivers side came out pretty good. I still have to adjust the door back towards the stricker but I didn't have any problem with the "thickness". The skins are goodmark from Ricks First Gen.
