The latch also has to be long enough to engage the slot (0.125 inches does not sound like quite enough). Not sure if that makes sense - I may be misunderstanding the issue.
My car is a highly modified FFR, not a Kirkham. It would be nice if I could get mine to do as yours does. I'll look closer. Maybe I can cut a notch in the frame. We'll see
