  • bottom runner rust

    The dreaded rust has taken set on the bottom guide and now the door drops out of the top runner when opened.

    Has anyone else had a similar problems and got any advice on the best method of repair as I have been unable to find replacement sections that can be welded in ?

    Cheers

    I think you're looking at getting a cut out one from a scrap van or getting someone to make you one. It's a common problem.

      Think Ric's had that problem. Best make up a repair panel and weld in.

        Give vw Heritage a try. There was also a guy on face book last year who fabricated the whole section and sold them.

            Cail campers do section cuts and can cut out a whole step if needed
