Not sure how they come off to be honest. Are they bolted on from the inside, id have thought you could see where it fixes if it has come off?
Ive always found that people who complain about sliding doors being flimsy are so heavy handed with them its unreal. Why do people slam doors as hard as they can? Mine shut perfectly well with very little force but it doesnt stop others trying to mash them back in the hole they're trying to cover.

That annoys me too, the lads get out the van and bang so I bloody tell them slam my f**king door again and I'll slam your head in it. They normally don't do it again.
I think it's this misconception that a lot of people have that don't own vans that they need to slam it for it to shut , there should be a law against this

I feel like going in their house and slamming there doors till they fall off the hinges cos it amounts to the same thing, paying for repairs.

Track should be greased up too, not so much that it'll get on clothes though.
I too hate/abhor idiots that slam the side door closed- mini bus!
