I think if it weren't for all the new parts the old latch may have worked with some adjustments/lubrication. With all the new parts, I just don't think the old latch could handle it. Thanks again for all the advice!

Thanks for the resolution. Too many people don't follow through with that after they get something figured out......

I know! I usually do a ton of searching before I post with a question and I always find others with problems, but no solutions.
