    to much noise from doors

     



    Does anyone know how to stop the whistling noise from doors when running above 30 MPH. I replaced all molding and gaskets and have even taken doors off to see if the were aligned right. My 37 sounds good below 30 but after that all I get is wind noise.

    Can you adjust your striker post in some to hold the door tighter ?

    And if that doesn't work, turn up the radio!

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Done all of that . Replaced all gaskets but still getting wind noise from top of doors where they bend to form the curves. These doors are from a donor 37 that I replaced and they fit well. Is it practical to use a thicker gasket along the top and sides of doors or will this cause problems with gapping on the remaining bottom of door?

    Thanks Denny I'll give that a try as soon as it warms so I can get my fingers to work.
