i dunno man, I'm not a body mechanic. But, I can relate to you, man, as I have a "heavy" passenger shotgun door. It's like it takes about 20lbs to close that door. Anyway....yeah, it's heavy man...real...heavy....Yeah!

I had the same problem with both my cars. Just get some 3 in 1 light oil from a hardware store and lubricate your door hinges every 6 months or so. Just make sure to have a clean towel to gently wipe up any excess oil that spills out of the hinges when applying oil on them.

Just lubricate the the door hinges. There are 2 hinges per door. This should be done at least once every 3 months. Often if it's raining.
