Slider door workings question.

Post by The_blue »

My slider scrapes the bodywork :(


I've had it to bits and it looks like the arm to the slider is folding to far in.


After breaking it into parts i think the cam on the sprung section is worn.



When the door is open should the arm be at 90 degrees to the van/door?



mine goes past 90 and nearly folds right over on its self...

Well...

I'm having a friend weld two blobs on so the worn arm sits at 90o again..

All done and bits back on!

What a difference! The slider isn't hitting the body any more and it even shuts 1st try!
