This was the correct version but the front arm or bearing was not functioning, not allowing the door to close. Needed to go back to the old one to get it to work. Something is off

Easily overlooked, resolved what builder neglected

Background... fully restored and updated Vanagon, a stupid amount of money spent for that work. Immediate issies with slider door that every adjustment wouldn't address and two latch rebuilds as it wouldn't latch to 2nd position and hold closed, would always pop to safety notch while driving, one time slid open going down the road. Door often had a vague rattle on rough roads. Finally pulled door and noted a fair amount of play in the pivot point where it's apparently bushed with a copper or similar bushing. While I don't have a new one to compare with, it seemed obviously worn, rebuilder only put roller lot on it and painted it shiny.. anyways, this piece changed the whole manner of the slider. Sounds and: feels solid and after readjusting door and striker pin, everything works properly. In the end it was the one component not replaced that was the end issue. This piece feels solid, matches the original in every way I could see. Side note: the plastic/nylon cap that sits on top of arm is oddly not included, they sell them on the site though and is better finished with its addition

The installation was pretty straightforward. The only problem I have with my hinge is that you have to push in on the back of the camper door to get it to close correctly

Complete sliding door hinge late Vanagon

The sliding door can now be opened one handed as the sliding door hinge pops the back end of the door slightly allowing the door to now slide open with out having to pull the hinge side out to allow the door to slide open. A little difficult to get the 3 bolts in when installing the new hinge. Definitely requires the help of an extra set of hands. John from GoWesty made it look so easy by yourself on the GoWesty utube video for vanagon sliding door maintenance part.
A1 GoWesty part, definitely worth the 2 hours to disassemble, clean and reassemble it took me to install the new sliding door hinge
