  16. correct or 30 and out I retired at 48 with 30 and out with full benifits
  17. yes thats the hole !! ...correct about the striker it is no where near it , ( and the stiker is on the body with the latch being in the door ) but as I said I never worked body so not sure 100% what we used it for , maybe Buffalo stamping used it when making the door . Why we put a sticker ( which is black and oval about the size of a toonie ) over it I have no idea ..we just did , ( i belive we deleted this in the last few years of production ) then it was covered with the body side molding DSO ...dealer special order ( Police units and so forth ) yes it is in both back doors front doors were mounted by useing a jig / lift which grabed the whole door and then we screwed the hinges to the body ( i had a buddy that did this so I saw how this was done ) Go to the STAP facebook page you will get more assemblers there to answer your questions
  18. yes done at the factory ,sealed and painted so it will not rust , some were covered with a black sticky then the BSM was installed over that , on DSO the sticky was deleted striker is the part that sticks out and goes in the latch I trhought we used that hole for mounting the door , but I never worked in body so not 100% certain , but put hundreds of stickys over that dam hole ...lol
