Door Panel Question Help Please

[audaciousduo]

So I'm down to the short strokes on my 1972 Jimmy restoration and went to throw the door panels on. The only rust free doors I could find were pre 1972. When I went to snap on the plastic moulded door panels the arbors for the window crank and door handle appear too short. Are the internals different on the doors? I do have a nice set of pre 72 door panels but would prefer to use the correct ones. I really don't want to swap out all the regulators and internals. I suppose I could drill and tap the center of the arbors and use the old style handles with the retaining screw. Any insight would be very much appreciated.
