took apart new door stop piece...how to reassemble? 850

Klaus -

Thanks for responding - it took a while but I got the two pieces of door stop together - the green "carabiner" into position and the flat piece between the rollers. I torqued on it in a vice and bent the carabiner part a bit but it installed just fine.

The disappointment came testing the door - it stops but barely now at the stop points - a wind or just momentum will close it - its not like the other doors.

What did i do wrong? I put grease on the rollers and the bar - too much? Would bending the vertical rod of the green part change the resistance at all?

I installed genuine volvo from FCP.

Thanks for any insight,

Andrew / St Paul, MN
