I put them on mine and it definitely makes a difference. Well worth the $100 IMO.

Did them on my 01 and they definitely make a difference. Just be careful removing the old ones. Used a 3/8th snapon impact and drivers door went fine. Passenger side the clip that holds the nut broke from the impact and I almost lost it down inside the cab. Would recommend doing them by hand.

Sounds interesting, I might have to give this a try. I've done the door seal mod and it's really helped, but I still get the occasional door rattle over larger bumps or pot holes.

This is claimed as working better than the door seal mod, but doing both makes the doors difficult to close.

I moved the strikers in on my truck. When doing it I found that the holes for the striker on th passenger side is about 1/8 inches further out than the driver which was the cause if my passenger door sounding less solid. To help I put a rubber stopper in the door jamb to give it a little more pressure. I plan to buy some new strikers at some point.

that is exactly how my passenger door is.. it is out far enough that I constantly think it isn't shut all the way... I really need to do this to mine..

Order from Sunrise, free shipping- looking forward to your feedback.

I'm still kinda shocked it made such a difference. Sounds crazy but I feel like the cab is noticeably more rigid.
