<<<If anyone is interested, I can make a video showing how the doors open with these shocks and you can tell me if it is normal or not. - VB>>>>> VideoBob, Are you sure your torsion bars aren't overtightened a notch or two? If you remove the piston from the door and let the door hang, it should only have a couple inches of space from being closed. If you have much more than that, the bars are too tight. It's likely a previous owner may have cranked them up one because the struts were about dead and this way they opened better!
