67 and Up Door Latch Mechanisms in 60-66
I would like my 66's door locks/latches to work like the 67 and up trucks. Has anyone tried or heard of way to adapt the 67's to work in a 60-66? It just occurred to me that this might be possible so I haven't had a chance to look at a later model truck to see what might need to be done.

The Altman kit is an option if you have a spare $340 laying around.

Then you would have to align everything on your truck, cut, weld, realign and figure out the locking mechanism and latch release linkages. Last edited by Tazimafied; 06-01-2016 at 05:00 AM. |
