Altman/Trique Easy Latches.....1952-1954 kit

Hey guys,

Has anyone used the altman easy latches by trique.mfg for the 1952-1954 AD trucks. I installed the drivers side and ran into a snag. I got them in but had to do some modification to the stricker plate to get it to work. The hole for the striker bolt was way off, like and inch to an inch and half off. I had to flip the plate backwards and drill an new hole for the striker bolt to mount thru. Maybe I did something wrong but I tried installing the striker plate every which way but loose....with no luck. I will post some pix tomorrow when I finish the other side. I will say that the door now shuts and locks awesome. Im very happy with the kit. There are a few little things that I would change but overall very satisfied.
