Subject:'87 Westy Door Handle Loose
From:Bob Stevens
Date:Fri, 8 Aug 2003 17:11:01 -0600

I don't know if this will be useful to anyone but thought I'd put up a note
about its tightening. My passenger door handle was loose and after removing
most of the interior door panel I found that it can be easily tightened by
moving the rubber door gasket/moulding aside in the jamb near the end of the
handle, exposing a phillips screw, sliding a large phillips screw driver in
there and tightening. I actually used a 3/8 drive ratchet with the phillips
bit. Better leverage and got it tighter.
I guess my "learning the hard way" curve penchant isn't done.
