So at Jim Carters information I determined I put the seal on correct the first time. The "groove" goes up with the smaller tip against the door itself and the larger tip against the cab body. My seals are from Steele and don't seem to compress enough when trying to close the door. Hopefully over a few weeks and multiple closings they wil break in. Any other suggestions?
