Door Handles

I just found these on POL. They look great and seem like a fantastic price. Anyone have any?

Re: Door Handles

Those do look pretty slick. How's the finish? I hope you get the issue with it falling off figured out?

Is the post worn out? I imagine they have a set screw, Have you tried thread locker? or is it clip style?

Re: Door Handles

My door handles fall off all the time too but i think its cause i might be using 72 door handle mechanism, my handles used to not fall off but ever since i got new doors and unknown door mechanisms they will not seat in all the way unless i eather grind some metal off the shaft or ream the inside of the door handle.

Re: Door Handles

the handles are nice shiny, they seem to be sturdy and good quality. I had thought about using thread lock or hell, even jb weld but I am worried about ever having to take them off. god forbid i have to remove the door panel to fix something.

That should be easy to fix. Grind a flat spot or a grove, use medium thread locker, and you are ready to go!

Thumbs up Re: Door Handles

I have the same handles for sell on Face book. Mine are the Chrome plastic ones though. Look just like these. I have a set of billet ones now in the 71 and the thread lock did the trick from them falling off.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: Door Handles

I also have them. they came on the green 69 I bought this spring. it's the first thing I removed, didn't like them, they came loose and just felt cheap to me. ended putting stock ones back on...
