The nylon bushing on my door latch became brittle and broke off. Picked up a couple of bushings at local auto parts store, but do not have the correct size torx bit to remove the door latch bolt. What size torx bit is needed Appreciate any information.
I picked them up at Discount Auto Parts and they were under $5.00. There were four, two long and two short. Two of them fit the tailgate latch and the other two fit driver and passenger door. Thanks for the heads-up on the T-50.
I forgot to mention the brand name is "HELP" and the part # is 38424. It is called a striker bolt bushing kit. This particular brand carries a lot of those little hard to find parts.
Just replaced mine today with the same part number. All i can say is wow. I never even knew that the tailgate was supposed to have bushings...i just knew it rattled like crazy and never seemed to close right. Now it's as sung as can be...same with the doors. Good stuff
