Needed Driver's Side Lock

[dswalterwi at earthlink.net (Don Walter)]

Thanks for the suggestion but I already tried that.  It feels really loose and doesn't spring back up firmly like it should.

Clean it up first. Use alcohol or carb cleaner.

> It seems the lever that is suppose to latch onto the door post does not
want to return to its upright position.  It kind of flops up and down and
barely holds itself in the highest postion.  I don't know if a spring can be
replaced or if I need the whole mechanism.  If the whole thing needs to be
replaced I am hoping that someone can bring one to Cincy.  Otherwise does
anyone knows if the spring can be replaced.
