Hello, I recently had the sliding door on my 84 Westy jam when I was opening it. Further investigation showed that the "Guide Piece" (part number 251-843-368) had jumped off the track and spun 90 degrees on the now-broken rivet that is holding it on. This is the little plastic block with a groove in it that rides on the track midway up the van. I checked on ETKA to see if I could learn anything more about what's going on there and it looks like there is supposed to be a fillister head bolt and nut holding the guide piece on instead of a rivet. Can anyone tell me if I am misreading the CD or what parts I would need to fix this? Thanks, Brian Brian Keese 84 Westy 'The Ark' |
