1970 Chevy C20 Custom Camper 350 / TH350

Replaced the body mounts with energy suspension poly mounts. New bolts and sleeves. Now the doors are not lining up correctly. They hit the striker, I have to pick up the doors to get them to close. The door frame is almost touching the A pillar. There is a decent sized gap at the top back of door. Sounds like I need to shim the front mount a bit? Should I just toss 1/8" thick washers in there until everything looks correct?

Thank you
