I could try removing my spring see if its different to yours. Don't do it!!! Probably won't go back in, or shoot off into oblivion [emoji12] I'll take the metal panel off tomorrow and see if I can persuade the stopper back a bit with a tappy tap hammer [emoji106] Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

https://i.imgur.com/ClaVGYD.jpeg This is my early slider. The card I'd uncovered, but even so there is a gap that a finger fits between catch and card. Also a gap between card and runner cover panel. Looks like your door is closer to the body than mine. Nice thanks! Looks the same spring fitting I ...

Thanks mocki, I noticed this too, but wondered if it's different on early /late? The spring engagement looks different to stesaw's, but wouldn't change the throw. I'll take the cover panel off and see if it looks bent. Here's the spring. I got it from someone on here years ago, it didn't have one wh...

Coo thanks for the pics- is yours a late door?

Hi, Just fitted s new door card to my early slider, and the return hook latch thing (to keep the slider open) fouls on the card, threatrening to make a huge rip :shock: this used to happen on the old card too, though not as prominent since it was thinner and more rotten. https://i.imgur.com/AlJuLpJ....

With the outside door handle removed, can you lock and unlock the door with your finger, by pushing the lock ring left and right?

There's info on here somewhere (from Aidan probably) about how far the throw should be on the clutch slave- worth getting that info if you can find it [emoji106]

Swapped in the new window last week, what a faff [emoji21] I could put a small blade along the old mastic and release the whole frame without much trouble at all. Window recess was in great condition though with no broken paint or rust, just used alcohol to clean it up ready for the new proper seal ...

I think if the vehicle wasn't fitted with them when it was made, then you've no obligation to fit them. Though obviously it's a good idea. Check that though!

Ps welcome!

Update on this one.  I got it up to operating temp (3/4 on the engine temp again.)  Checked out the engine with my laser thermometer and no part of the engine was over 90c so I've now confirmed that my gauge is just showing around 90C at 3/4.  I can live with that.   Now that you've measured it pro...

thanks guys-  i cant even see a rubber seal on mine... without poking and comprimising the mastic i wont know until im ready to yank it out (not bought the new windows yet)... but im thinking it's just glued with gooey stuff to the outide face of the lip.   i hope the JK seals that come with the win...

The square end might be rounded and it hangs on the groove on the cable

Ie claw hammers, using the claw ends [emoji106]

Mmmm I'm a sucker for the ex service vehicles [emoji3526] from the one exterior pic, I'm all in [emoji106][emoji1]

Yes,I'm obsessed as in interested, not obsessed as in getting the lowest numbers. Relative humidity is, well relative... To the temperature. We have what's probably viewed as a cool house, so 70% is achievable and comfortable. If it were warmer in here, it'd be lower. It's made a huge difference to ...
