Door Latch

Anyone have a fix to stop the rattling for the small piece of metal that the door lock rod connects to? It's driving me crazy.

Re: Door Latch

I've heard of people putting a bit of sound deadening material (Dynamat, Brown Bread, etc.) on it.

Re: Door Latch

Depending on where it's rattling, you may be able to wrap some rubber tape on it. Not electric tape. It's a thicker soft rubber one. I believe the last time I bought some was at Lowes.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
