Fought the fight, yesterday. Highly irritated. Might even get over it!
64 Sport Fury passenger side door. Had already fit it, had the door where it would close, and latch. Though, should have been better, and if wet weather, the latch seemed to drag a little. So, decided to fix that puppy.
Had a gap of 1/8" in front, 1/4" in back, so decided to set that first. So, go though all the bs, to move the door 1/16" to the rear. Then, the fight. Adjusted the door latch 'several' times, but the door refused to go past the first 'click'. What the hell?
Looked all around the door, and opening, for any place it might be contacting...nothing...all kinds of clearance. Finally, pulled the latch, to see if that was it. No. Door still would not fully seat into the opening. 'Something' is binding, not letting the door to close all the way. Even moved the door back where I had it, where it will close, but, has to be pushed into place.
So, today, with a clear head, and my one eye opened, gonna take a fresh look, and find just what the hell is going on.
Thanks! Almost feel better, now. (Still pissed)
