[QUOTE="Bookwus, post: 174050, member: 3986"] Hiya Camp, Adjusting the slider can get a bit complex, especially if it is way out of whack to start with. Here are a few things to check out............ Make sure that your neoprene plastic sliding block (it runs the track under the track cover) is in good shape. This part is available new and easily replaced. Check to make sure that the rest of your sliding hinge link assembly is in good operating shape. Most of these things are pretty "iffy" after 35 years of slam-bang. Examine the door when it is shut completely. Gaps between the door and the body should be even and the door should lie perfectly flat with the body. Oh, and don't expect that the door will slam shut and latch [b]IF[/b] you have all the windows on the Bus closed up tight. It may (or it may not) depending on how air-tight your Bus is. [/QUOTE]
