This is usually caused by the latch being out of adjustment (IE the Latch post has moved over time) a couple of things you can do 1, quick fix is to adjust your Rubber stops out further (you can find these on either side and you just need a wrench to move them out) 2, Adjust to position of your latch post.. this can be time consuming if you don't know what you are doing.. Just loosen the 4 screws that hold it in and move it in (towards the front of the jeep) about a Centemeter tighten everything up and see if that does the trick.. if not do it again and again and again.. then you will find that you have moved it in too far and the damn door doesn't want to latch anymore.. start over.. it normally takes me about an hour to get it right.. but that will fix you up.. also make sure that everything on the door is good and tight including the locking mechanism oh one last thought LOCKTIGHT
thanks utahcherokee01 that worked just great
