Default Almost a year old, but some problems latch around -

I just noticed another item that could cause an issue with that "final push" to latch down.

That is the position of the lower latch hook, ahem, this is the latching part with the hook.
There are 2 slots which enable almost 1" of adjustment in height depending on where
the latch screws are tightened in the slots. These small screws can loosen. I noticed that
my curb latch was upwards in slots, and my street side latch was downward in the slot.
One of the street side screws had become loose. The street side was more difficult to
latch. Getting the items in sync, hopefully.

Just another item. Happy Camping!

I noticed the same issue. and ensure that the latch is in the "proper" alignment.
