Mercury Zephyr Rear Door Striker

The Rear Door Striker on a Mercury Zephyr keeps the back door latched for safe travel. This small U-shaped piece of metal mounts to the body frame and fits in with the latch on the door. This prevents the panels from coming apart due to bumps, wind, and weather. The original Zephyr models incorporated a zinc-coated plate fastened with the use of two torx screws, while the later Mercury editions retained the design but with tougher pins and better corrosion resistance so that the Rear Door Striker lasted longer. No matter what year, alignment is key. Owners mark the original position, loosen the screws, gently guide a well-placed tub of grease or a hammer to the side of the plate, retighten, and voila. The door shuts with a crisp click. Every Rear Door Striker features oval bolt holes to allow fine side shifts. A misaligned Zephyr Rear Door Striker could cause a Mercury door to spring open on bumps. It costs little and takes about fifteen minutes to replace a fatigued Rear Door Striker. Moreover, it helps to prevent sagging doors, water leaks, and slamming. To ensure a smooth seal, Mercury Zephyr doors require cleaning and lubrication twice yearly.

Mercury Zephyr Rear Door Striker Parts Questions & Experts Answers

  • Q: How to adjust and install the Front Door Striker and Rear Door Striker on Mercury Zephyr?
    A:
    Use a pair of vise grips to unscrew the door latch striker stud, and installation is the reverse of removal. The striker stud can be adjusted vertically, laterally, and fore-and-aft, but it must not be used to compensate for door misalignment. The door latch striker can also be shimmed to achieve the correct clearance between the latch and striker. To check the clearance, clean the latch jams and striker area, then apply a thin layer of dark grease to the striker. Close and open the door while noting the pattern of the grease. Move the striker assembly laterally to ensure a flush fit at the door and pillar or quarter panel, and tighten the striker stud after making the necessary adjustments.
