Havnt dug into why my deck lid is loose on the passenger side or why its rattling yet but maybe someone here has delt with this. How is the rear deck lid adjusted?
I'm not sure about adjusting anything. Make sure the rubber parts/grommets are all still attached and also make sure that the bracket that holds the lid down is not loose. Starting points anyway.
I looked at it last night. Its those plastic bushings in the pivot points at each riveted pin. Wonder if anyone has had any luck figuring out how to repair without drilling out the rivets which would be a major pain. Once they are worn they rattle like crazy going down the road.
Follow-up: OK, I have no idea if this will assist you but for 20 minutes time I figured I would try to help a fellow long term 'vert owner. Those plastic bushings you mentioned are an unknown to me. I'm just not good at this stuff. Sorry.
This is the 'stock' untouched set-up from the factory. I've never done a thing to it and it's all tight and fits well. The big bolts that look 'out' are in the same position on both sides and do not budge. I didn't realize how many pieces were actually present but I think I covered them all.
I hope you can get something out of this mass of photos. Good luck!
So many attached pieces.
Potential rattle area.
Inside looking out.
Is this area OK??
One bolt looks 'out' but it's the same on both sides with no movement.
Im going to try getting a little bit of work on it this weekend. I circled the pins with plastic bushings in the picture. All of these pins that are actually rivets have plastic bushings to hold them tight. Yours look like they are in good shape mine are all worn and loose. But I will get my Engineering brain working on it and likely come up with a solution.
