Ford Door Striker Bushing | 1980–1997 F-Series & Bronco Does Your Ford Door Rattle, Clunk or Feel Loose When It's Closed? Before replacing the entire door striker, check the little plastic bushing around it. After decades of opening and closing the doors, the original door striker bushing can wear down, crack or disappear completely. Once it's gone, the door latch is contacting the metal striker directly, which can leave the door feeling loose and create that familiar rattle or clunk every time you hit a bump. The Complete Performance Door Striker Bushing replaces that worn factory bushing and helps restore proper engagement between the door latch and striker. It's one of the cheapest and easiest improvements you can make to an old Ford and you'll notice it every time you close the door. Why Replace Your Striker Bushings?

Replace the worn bushing, adjust the striker if necessary, and get your door closing properly again. Small part. Easy repair. Big difference. Important Note This bushing can help correct looseness and rattling caused by a worn or missing striker bushing. If the door itself is physically sagging due to worn hinge pins, hinge bushings or damaged hinges, those components will need to be repaired separately.
