ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Door check

    The driver's door on my 4-dr CB seems to open just a bit further than it's supposed to. The door check that keeps it from over extending seems to be loose on the body end, not the door end. Does this bolt inside the kick panel or any idea? I don't want a gust of wind to whip that sucker open and crease the door.
    I don't jerry-rig, i make custom parts with alternative materials.

    It is spot welded to the body structure. If the welds have broken, you could potentially drill through and use a bolt and nut (I suggest as large as possible a nut on the back side) to clamp it in place. It won't be easy to get to the back side though.

      Thanks fleet! I'll take a look-see and maybe do that.

        When I say "a bolt and nut", I mean one both above and below.
