Traveler Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 I had a sticking trunk lock, bought new one, replaced it, gasket and retainer and the lock failed again. The original lock tailshaft has an offset(upper assembly in picture), the new one is straight, anyone know which one is correct? I also bought a new latch but the old one seems fine with the cylinder removed and I use a screwdriver to actuate it, latch alignment is correct to striker. john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
