GMC NUMBER: 92-10-68

DATE: April 1992
CORPORATE
NUMBER: 161514
SUBJECT:
END GATE LATCH RATTLE (INSTALL REVISED STRIKER ASSEMBLY)
MODELS:
1983-92 "S/T" 2 AND 4 DOOR UTILITIES
Owners of some 1983-1992 S/T 2 and 4 door utility vehicles may comment that their end gate latch rattles. One possible cause of this condition is the
end gate latch fork bolts contacting the striker assembly (metal-to-metal) causing a rattle.
To correct this condition, it is necessary to install a new striker assembly that has a urethane sleeve over the striker post. The urethane sleeve prevents
metal-to-metal contact and may eliminate the rattle.
