Default Supercap Door Structural Rigidity

I've only got about 45K miles on my '08.
However I have noticed some rattling of the front/rear doors when going over a rough road. When the truck was new everything was tight and quiet. Over the years they have loostened up. Is there anything I can do to snug things back up? I'm kind of anal and like to stay on top of issues. Thanks!

There are adjustments that are easy to spot and do. Replace the door seal gaskets.

Thanks. I hadn't really looked closely at it. I figured it might be wear in the hinges or something. I remember the 1990's F150's had issues with the front door sheet metal splitting at the bottom rear corner of the window. This was on extended cab models. I'd seen three of these myself. Just wanted to be able to head off anything similar on the Ranger.

I've noticed the same problem on our '06 but it has 208,000 miles. And its just the driver's side door, so I assume its a wear-related issue (the previous owner was a single guy so the pax side has less wear overall). I'm hoping its just an adjustment, but I haven't got around to it yet.
