Customs i feel stoopid, i need some advice, door stuck shut

Still there!

 

Makes you wonder about the title to this thread. Maybe he found out the door was locked.

Hey, that would make ME feel stupid!!

I suspect that's the case.

 

^^^^^^^^^ probably why he ain't been back!

 

What was the solution?

 

@tred I see you were on the HAMB earlier today. How about an update on this?

 

ARE WE STILL TRYING???????

 

From reading his original post, Im thinking he bound up something in the latch when he installed it. If the shims on the striker were causing interference (my first thought), the door would not have closed easily. Of course, some folks' idea of easily may differ from others. Would be cool to bear from the OP, hopefully it was just locked and he got it open without damage.

 

This is a Jerry Seinfeld thread, it's a whole lot to do about absolute nothing. Seven pages of how to get a door open. People here have built an entire car from parts in less time and fewer pages.

 

And the beat goes on,,,,,,,,,

 

AH what the hell. We ever fix this?? still shut??? Will the sun shine? do bears, bear do bees, be???
I'm sure there is more???

 

I heard he took the entire car apart, bit by bit with a sawlzall, as the door fell to the ground, rocking back and forth, he could just tell it was mocking him.

He tried to pick it up..."Oh no, Mr. Door, you're going in the scrap pile"...well he still can't get the door up off the pavement.

Good thing, could be a rabbit hole under it now.

Cue up "Go ask Alice" please.

 

Three months since I last posted, and yep, seeing this thread bumped up still makes me angry.
All the advice and he never seemed to have taken any of it.

 

I PMed the OP yesterday and asked him if he ever got the door unstuck, this is what he replied to me this morning;

BJR
Did you ever get your door open?

yes i did, took a few people to do it
the door hings sag just enough to let this happen

So now we have an end to this thread!

 

Many thanks. There is more i could say, but, again many thanks
