Re: Sqeaky Rear Hatch?

Spraying some WD-40 on the latch stopped the squeak in mine.

Re: Sqeaky Rear Hatch?

Same here, but I used lithium grease, It drove me crazy. I just went over every point I thought would cause it.

Unhappy Re: Sqeaky Rear Hatch?

Every Blazer/Jimmy ever made will develop the Latch squeak eventually.

Re: Sqeaky Rear Hatch?

Give the metal loop of the latch a couple of rounds with black tape. Not a permanent fix, but mine lasted a long time.

Such delicate feelings.... Sorry to distress you... Now chill the hell out will ya already!!

Go get some white lithium grease spray and lube crap out of it.

The latches are a crappy design and like I said earlier, most ALL Blazers/Jimmys will eventually get the squeak.
