Door closing issue

Driver's door was not closing smooth like the passengers side door. I loosened the two door jam striker screws and tried to align it better where it meets the door. Its still tough to close?

Is this the door handle going out??? I can still open it from inside and out, but feels funny compared to passenger's side

Anyone? I'm guessing door handle or latch, but not sure which to order?

You may need to re-align the whole door. I belive it's covered in the Haynes Manual and/or the FSM. Also, have you lubed the mechanism lately?
