Hopr this is right board....

My 86 firebird hatchback liftgate assm. (the part with the motor, trunk latch and glide bars) doesn't work.

Thought it was the motor so I refurbished it myself, works great now but.....the plastic guides that the latch sets in and slides up and down the slide bar are broken.

can you just buy this part? anyone have any luck fabricating anything else to work? wood, hose....whatever...

anyone know what the $%#$#% I'm talking about....LOL

get in touch with lonsal at top down solutions (see advertisement up top, right in the middle). he has any part you need for the hatch pull down, and will be able to guide you in your repairs as well.
