shane634 Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 My '87 Comanche has a problem where the driver side door doesn't want to catch and latch shut. The plastic on the visible latch mechanism is chewed up to say the least. I have had to weld the latch on the body ( inside that this is supposed to catch on ) back to the body. Anyone else had this problem?? If so how did you resolve it?? Thanks Shane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 have you checked you hinges? They may be pulling from the A-Pillar and the door isn't lining up properly. If not then get a "door adjuster" and adjust the door. It sounds like the striker plate isn't lining up with the door. I used silly putty to look at my 90 sundance doors. Just put it in the seam where the latch was and closed it lightly so I could see how far the door was sagged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
