truck doors?

[coopdeville]

i have a 71 cab and put on a 67 door on the pass side and kept the 71 door on drivers side. the inside door handle on the 71 door sticks out further than the 67 door. are the doors different? im using the metal door panels off of the 67.

Muts have a 72 door handle relay on that 71 door or maybe its a 72 door. The 72 relay has a longer stub to account for the 72 deluxe door panels that are thicker. You need to swap in the old 67 relay with the shorter stub on it. Check any parts catalog for the two different relays.

are you sure its not a 72 door? 67-71 the regulators should all be the same?

I assume he means door handle and not window crank. You are correct on the regulators, though.

yes just the door handle... must be a 72 door huh? can i switch the relay? i painted the doors and panels and dont want to replce that 1 door.

Yes, the door handle relay is just bolted in there. It should be easy to swap to the shorter 67-71 version.
