68 - 72 interior handles

Trying to help out a friend with the interior panels that we just put on his P/U - it is a '68 cab and we put my old 72 door panels on it - now the handles will not fit - it is almost like they need to be 1/2" longer to get over the shaft and lock on...Sound familiar to anyone?? Are there handles out there that will work?

Re: 68 - 72 interior handles

The handles are not the problem. 72 door panels stick out further than 67-71, you will need to use window regulators and door pulls from a 72 to get the clips on the handle. The regs and pulls are a direct bolt on.

You will need to change the panels, or change the regulators...
