Getting that gap even and close to closed all around is one of the biggest bugaboos on AD trucks for some reason. I had a terrible time with mine. Two body shops later and continued fussing with mine and it seems to be as good as it will ever be. I'll bet I've looked at two hundred of these old models and they all seem to have this issue. Patience and perseverence unfortunately is all the advice I can offer. I asked the same question here and never did get what I felt was decent advice. Now you have mine and it's no good either! :confused:
