passenger door issues

I have done a few different searches on this and I can't seem to figure it out..

the passenger door on the truck is tight, and you have to give it some push/pull to get it to move, and then you have to slam it to get it to close... as the driver side is better, it opens very well and free..
I have cleaned the hinges, I have re-lubed all that I can see and yet no differences..

anyone had this problem? how do you fix this? thanks in advance..

Re: passenger door issues

Just take the bottom of the door in your hand and pry up once, check it and go from there. They sag over time from people hanging on them and such. Prying up will realign the catch where the door closes, don't get carried away if it is too bad you can loosen off the bolts on the catch slightly and just tap lightly with a hammer until they are lined up.
