Billet door handles/window cranks - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Nova_Cobra64 · 02-17-2003, 07:47 PM

Has anybody used these on their trucks? I want to get a set like the ones on the right one this page: http://www.thehitchshop.com/cart/cgi...accessries.htm

Since I can't get door handles, I was just going to get the long ones and take the knobs off and use them as handles and buy the smaller one for the window cranks. The important thing is do they fit??

Well, if I can find referance to these type fitting I will order them through work at cost plus 20%.

70c10 · 02-18-2003, 01:37 AM

Send them an email and ask them.

Reumster · 02-18-2003, 10:42 AM

I'd like to get some billet handles also. For my new Custom door panels I'm getting from 70c10. Any other companies making them? Pricing?

Church · 02-18-2003, 12:23 PM

I am checking to see if these will fit our trucks. I have these for 28.75 plus shipping.

Nova_Cobra64 · 02-18-2003, 06:21 PM

Let me know what you find out, Church.

70c10 · 02-18-2003, 06:48 PM

I just saw these in my JC Whitney catalog I got today and Church is cheaper by $1.20 for the pair. JCW wants $29.95 per pair. I have made purchases thru Ryan's company and have been VERY happy!

PHOENIX · 02-18-2003, 06:48 PM

Also Check out Billet Specialties
http://www.billetspecialties.com/ite...pid=301&rdir=1

They also make vent window cranks and door handles, which all match, and should all fit. They have great customer service and if you order direct from them the shipping is fast!

Church · 03-03-2003, 09:10 PM

Here is the deal on the APC billet handles. I ordered a pair to check out the quality and to see if they would fit. first off the quality of these are not great. They may be billet alum. but they have been sandblasted to give them a cast finish. They are put togther by 3 or 4 set screws. This is what also allows them to fit many different applications. They will not fit our trucks w/o modifications. I do not reccomend them.

70c10 · 03-03-2003, 09:30 PM

Thanks Ryan for the info and saving us the trouble!

Nova_Cobra64 · 03-03-2003, 10:15 PM

Just out of curiousity, what type of modifications would be required?

NSANE68!!! · 03-03-2003, 10:53 PM

I got the Billet Specialties, window crank and door handles. They are factory replacements and a VERY GOOD QUALITY, very high luster polish. But what else would you expect from a company like Billet specialties. I paid $60 a pair. WORTH EVERY PENNY.
Door handle PART#--45520 is for GM/FORD (1949-up)
Window crank PART#--46520 is for GM?FORD (1949-up

They would have to be drilled out a little larger to fit the shaft.
They are made to fit the square type shafts.

Does anyone make billet arm rests?
