Rattly tailgate..

(1/1)

Lostboy:
Hi folks,

My tailgate has started rattling a lot - it seems to be bouncing around in the latch. I can't find any way of adjusting it - does anyone know of one or is this the sign of bigger worries? I've heard sketchy tails of back ends of shells needing repairs...

scorpio:
Get an 8mm allen key and adjust the stricking plate it wqill stop the rattle

hobbit:
If you are sure its the latch fine if not, check the hinges or might be worth checking the spare wheel to see if the nuts have worked loose

Kev

Lostboy:
Ah, there is some adjustment on the striking plate then - I'll look at it again. I'm certain its not the spare wheel - thats strapped down where the rear seats used to be...

Thanks guys.

Pete.
