Default Air leak past door hinges

Bob,

I have air coming past the door hinges at highway speeds. I didn't notice this on my last ERA.

838 has the bonded body option and I can see the foam seals between the body and foot boxes. There are no obvious gaps in the areas I can see with my mechanic's mirror.

Do you have any suggestions for a way to improve this? What about poking a hole in one of the foam seals and shooting expanding foam in the gap between the two seals? Or maybe, this is normal?

John
