Greetings all,=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 The driver side door on my 65 BJ8 is=
 now suddenly failing to close completely. It closes well enough so that th=
e door wont fly open, but incomplete closure results in dreadful rattling w=
hen underway. I'd appreciate any suggestions as to how to correct the probl=
em. The striker plate looks worn no I'll be replacing that. Thanks.

A sudden failing suggests misadjustment rather than wear.  I'd try
adjusting the striker plate until the door latches fully, then adjusting
until the door alignment matches what it used to be.  You should be able to
get both unless something is keeping the door from closing fully.
