I have the passenger side door on and lined up... I have new lock cylinders but I only have one pawl I took off an old door.
I put it on the new cylinder and it has a lot of play, like 1/4-3/8 back and forth movement with the key out.
I stuck it back on the old cylinder and it has a lot there too.
Should these be tight?
yes I did search....
