GFX Rubbing
As you guys know, im installin 91-92 GFX on my 88 iroc. I was suppose to have my doors fixed (they slumped some) but the damn body didnt do it right. Do anyway, im installing my new rocker panels, to find out the door slightly rubs up against the rocker panel. Anyone else had this problem?

bad door pins will cause that very common problem. get the rebuild kit from hawks it has nice bearings and is made specific for our cars.

If they are spaced apart when closed but rub opening and closing its the hinges.. If they look like they are touching closed it's probably the metal mounting strip. Take the GFx off and beat the strip down a bit, then reinstall.
