Hi, Spent a pleasant afternoon Sunday. In the van, beer, tunes, good weather. I was cleaning the interior , tightening screws, adding fresh foam “dampeners” to closet doors. Adjusting said doors latch catches etc Partly because I needed too, and partly because I have this rattle or light clunking noise at times. It’s not, I think , suspension components, but something else... like a wrench left in a cavity :-) Spoiler alert, didn’t find the cause. But did find that the glove box can be adjusted. Escaped me for many years of van ownership. The latch striker plate is adjustable as is the bracket that the hinges fit into . You can level the box and get it closing nicely . Very thin strip of foam rubber along the top edge of box. Did my best to cut similar strip and install . Apart from the elusive clunking, was a very enjoyable couple of hours. Alistair |
