Hi guys,
The rear doors on my freelander 1 are extremely difficult to open and close..

The thing in the picture seems to be the problem ('thing' because i cant seem to find the name of it in the Haynes manual) It slides back and forth pretty viciously and hit the door seal when the door is closed, it could be normal but i don't know. I tried greasing it but it hasn't help so was wondering is there a way to get it out? :confused:
 
Everything is fixable....looks like its free floating from side to side on the pillar which has removed the paint.
I would suggest removing the pillar trim inside the hippo to see if you can get to it.......it may just be nuts worked loose if your lucky else get the welder out or maybe drill tap and machine screws to hold it in place?
