Adjusting Cargo Door Latches

[dmason]

I remember a post a while back that provided instructions on how to adjust cargo door latches so they would close and lock better. Can't find the post now. Appreciate a point in the right direction. Thanks.

Richard,
I remember that post but can't find it at the moment....I can relate to you what to do as I used that post to do an adjustment on the MH doors.

When you look at the latch attached to the door opening frame, it will be a u-bolt with a rubber bumper glued to the frame and nutted outside and inside. Very carefully peel the rubber bumper off the door frame (it will come off in one piece if you are careful). Once that it loosened, loosen the nuts and adjust the ubolt in or out as needed for proper closure. Retighten and restick the rubber pad (mine re-stuck without applying any new glue) and you're done.

Hope this helps....

Good Luck with those adjustments!
