rebuilt my door hinges recently on the bj8 and now have a problem with one door not shutting properly.  driver side door has to be shut by putting it a certain distance(approx 9 inches) then pulling it closed gently but not too gently or it will bounce back to the first detent.  sometimes it takes multiple attempts at various distances and speed.  have tried all different positions of the striker plate, but no luck.  pax door works fine.  the door latch bushing does seem to have a little play, but it was no problem before i redid the hinges.  any ideas?   hjim
