Quite true!!...but I found on those GM cars that once the "sag" set in, they
generally did not sag much more and once you reshimmed the doors back into
proper alignment, they didn't give much trouble. The only problem was that
reshimming the doors to get proper closure without jato assist would often
mess up the gaps so you would have good closure but gaps weren't right and
treating uneven door gaps can be very time consuming!
