Just noticed that the gaps inbetween the doors and the fenders are not perfectly even. Overtime can this happen? My truck has not been in a major accident according to the original owenr and I believe him. It is not noticeable at all I am just soooo **** about my truck, was just wondering if body panels liek that can shift slightly from being opened and closed over time. Thanks

 

Yup. Just the nature of the beast. Gravity, weight of the panels, your truck getting beat up driving up and down roads day in and day out, the metal itself expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down. No panels can be expected to stay perfectly aligned forever.

 

Thanks, I figured that was just it. I am sucha perfectionist thought. I have had this truck for a few days and have already doen an oil change, coolant flush, air filter, new plugs, wires, pvc, fuel filter, and full detailing, and the truck really didnt even need it!!! LOL

 

You may also wanna check the door pins and bushings believe me i need some now..... As it will cause your doors to slightly sag in and cause a gap between your door and jam also...
