Subject:slinding door problem on 81 westy.

I've a problem with the lower sliding door channel. The door is difficult to
close for the last 3-4" of travel - needs a good swing. The paint on the
horizontal surface of the lower guide has been scraped away - the surface
that looks at you as you look down toward the raod.  ANyway, it seems tha
the allow assembly that holds the wheel is scraping on the adjacunt
horizontal panel....It's as if the wheel has worn a channel ~ just
sufficient to make the allow piece interfere with the bodywork.  Any idea's
here - I'm at a bit of a loss to see how this happened - it's been like it
ever since I've had the van ~2 years but it finally bugging me.
