door problem
 
New to blazers.. My drivers side door seems to not be sealing properly.. Door gaskets look good but allows water to get in and its loud going down the highway..any tips?

check you door pin bushings, with the door slightly open, grab it and pull up, if it moves your bushings/pins need replacing.

Thanks.. I ran outside real quick to check..there is a little play and noticed door is leaning down a bit.. Can I get the bushings for that any parts store?

yup, usually $5-7 per pin/bushing set... 2 per door

So I bought 2 from oriellys and put them in still have the problem...are all the bushings suppose to the same size? Because the kits they sold me have 2 different sizes. Top one fitting loosely..

It dosnt look like the bushings are the same size On my 01 the bottom pin nails down and the top pin hammers up. The bigger bushing is closer to the pins head. IMO Prolly check YOUR passenger door with a flashlight

Sometimes if you have bad body mounts or rust in their areas (mostly the ones under doors hinges), the cabin becomes kind of twisted and not well leveled, which causes doors misalignment.

yes, different sizes, also, i found ebay was the cheapest source for buying a full set (2 doors)

my body sags a bit cause of broken upper cab mounts, once i get them replaced, they will be back to normal.
