When my door did that, it was the rear latch that was worn, and ended up
needing replacing :o(  I believe Ken at Vanagain had replacement latches
at the time.

It does not slide open, and is not completely unlatched.  Just loose enough to rattle.  Which end needs adjusting and which parts can we address to stop this?  (PS- the front doors are also fitting differently since we put on the new springs and shocks!)   Geneva and Mike www.slowcarfasthouse.com1985 Westfalia/Adventurewagen/Bostig
