Hey all, I've got a 2005 FWC, I believe it's a Hawk model as it's on my shortbed 2000 F250. The main door does not latch very well. I keep trying to adjust the little striker plate, but that only lasts a short period before the latch stops latching and I have to use the deadbolt to keep the door closed. I tried using a grinder to make the striker plate a little smaller, but again, that only worked for a short time (less than a day of use). We were in a windy camping spot over the weekend and the door kept blowing open when I would walk away for awhile. Is there an updated door latch assembly that is an easy bolt in upgrade? I'll post some pics to show the lock and the multiple holes cut into the door frame from POs over the years. Thanks!
