Rear hatch rubbing barn doors down
The rear hatch on our ex, is starting to dig into the fiberglass of the barn doors. Paint is already gone, just white fiberglass. This wasn't an issue was first, however we have been opening and closing it quite a bit more than we used to. Suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

I'm not sure how to post photos on here. Mine looks worse and more towards the center, I believe. However, its very similar damage.

This photo link above shows the hatch on the bottom side, where it meets doors. As you can see, there spots where there's rubbing against the barn doors. http://s146.photobucket.com/user/ford_f150_babe/media/Mobile%20Uploads/0710142234b.jpg.html?sort=3&o=2 This photo link is showing damage on top of barn doors, from hatch. Is there a missing seal between these doors, or something I'm missing? |
you need to put IMG tags to get the photos to show up.
All of my Excursions have done this, i just pretend its not there... |
I have the same things going on with my truck...

bump stops
at the bottom of the lift gate there are suppose to be 4 (pretty sure) bump stops. These over time will disappear, I'm at least missing one. I can only assume if they were all gone then there would not be anything stopping the hatch from hitting the barn doors. I do have white spots where the bump stops rest against the barn doors.
I've looking into replacing these but from what i remember they are no longer available from ford. |

This is the only other thread I can find in regards to these stops for the doors. If anyone still has a set on an 01 can you please post a photo on here? |

You didn't show those in photos, but do you also have stoppers there as well? Now it's trying to find something to replace these parts as Ford no longer makes them. |

Are there any stoppers in these holes on the left and right side of hatch? |
