Like Steve says, hopefully you have the bearclaw latch that Rocky sells in the kit too, which will triangulate your support with three strong points (asked about your front latches back in post #2 this thread, and Steve asked in #29). If the hinges are Rocky's and if you have bearclaw's and they're adjusted for smooth closing (not stressing the hinge mounts) I'd say that weatherstripping just might solve your problem.
    Good to know, it is indeed a bear claw latch from them. I just checked their site, it does shut very solid. Now on the weather stripping I am assuming that the stripping has a adhesive back, though on that page only one of the items is listed as having a adhesive back. That makes me think that the others do not?

    I love this forum on a side note, everyone is knowledgable and helps out much more than any other forum that I have ever been on. Ive been a member on a forum board for my daily driven car for over 10 years now and this site hands down stomps it.
