One rear door is sagging a little and won’t latch when you close easy. You have to pick it up slightly. Now I have tried to lower the striker in the jamb, and it was as low as I could get it. I also tried to adjust the latch on the door and didn’t seem to help. The hinges on a normal door is where I could make this up but I don’t see any way to adjust the hinges. Anyone had any luck adjusting so the rear doors latch properly?

The bushings are the way to go!!......but the DIY fix is good also. I haven't needed to do either yet bit when the time comes, I'll try the foam DIY fix first.
