Re: Door Latch Spring - '39 Six

I am wondering how much the sag is actually due to a weak spring rather than wear between the square hole in the latch and square shaft of the handle. The old or new spring could actually be keeping the hole perfectly positioned but if there is any wear inside the hole or rounded edges on the handle shaft at the particular spot they meet then only a few thousandths change could be enough to let the weight of the handle drop it into the annoying 1 or 2 degree sag.
