Subject:      Sliding door rear/center hinge stop?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

The sliding door on my 90 westy is making a tapping noise when, while closing, the rear
hinge assembly stops sliding along the track and begins to swing from
perpindicular to the body to parallel to the body (the last few inches
of closure).

I looked up in there, and it looks as if the
track on the body stops the roller on the hinge just before the door shuts. Does anyone know if
there is a rubber stop of some sort at the end of the track? It's hard
to tell, and Bentley has not yet provided a definitive answer. Thanks .
