At first I thought my new door seals were the issue and, after searching the forum, I could not find anything short of door pins (which my truck didnt need) and a complete strike latch assembly (mine didnt appear to be worn). However, after watching the video, I went out and invested in a piece of 1/2" PEX and a PEX cutter (which I needed anyway) and for about $15 Canadian I was able to make new striker bushing.
After a really bad Monday of epic fails and things going wrong this video restored my faith again, LOL.
Will take photos later if anyone wants to see, but the video illustrates it pretty well! |
I did this at the end of last week - really does make a huge difference. I did it in about 10 minutes using nothing more than a leatherman that had a small saw. Here in Maine 5ft of PEX cost me under $2 after taxes and I already had the leatherman. I used all of 3" of it.
