Loose Rear Hatch

The rear hatch on this rig was loose on the driver side. In the past I have just turned the rubber bumper 180 degrees to provide a new latch surface. Didn't work on this one. I got to looking at the both sides and noted that the loose side was drilled improperly at the factory. It was off by a good 3/8". Anyhow I elongated the hole and it's now nice and tight. Something to check if you have an annoying loose hatch.

This is good to hear. Our rear door on the top left is slightly loose and rattles some if I don't give it a little tug.  I'm  in for doin some adjustment after ready this.  Been putting it off way too long on something so simple. 
 Thanks for posting Jor.
