I was told that the 'BODY LOCK' in two of my doors are
broken.  They cant be opened from inside, outside only.  Anyone have these
for sale?

Would these be rear doors by any chance?

I have one rear door which intermittently will not open from the inside but
*always* opens from the outside just fine.  It sounds like you already know
the answer Jim?

That'd be my first guess..... When I'm diagnosing latches and such, I use
the way the handle feels when I move it to a great extent.... easy to
move/floppy/stiff/ stiff then floppy.... It's almost like being a
detective... we take what clues we gather and put them together.

I wish I could expound but SWMBO (woodworkers should recognize that one) is
chomping at the bit for our first camping trip.....

I'll be sure to stop around during the weekend...

Two back doors and the handle goes all the way back.
One was popped when they tried opening the door while
the safety lock was on.  It broke with a popping sound.

Check the door handles, my two rear doors had the same problem,
there is a lug that catches another and it had broken,
my wife's cousin, visiting from OR repaired them and I didn't watch,
I think he turned them upside down or reversed them some way.
