    They are probably junk! The plastic casing shot :-(
    I need to know does anyone have an idea if the front and back are the same? I look for the back and ONLY the front shows up for sale
    Thanks

    Yep, I've been running without the plastic cases for a few yrs now. WD-40 doesn't do anything. I wince everytime sum1 shuts my door cause it makes an audible thud if latch is down when they attempt to close it. I have found that Graphite lube seems to keep it operating normally longer than any type of grease. I would like to fix it but I'm not paying $200, I could get lifetime supply of Graphite lube for that kinda money.
