Suburban 3rd door locking hardware

[Bmdully]

After scouring the forums and websites I've found, like many of you, that nobody has the locking hardware for the Suburban 3rd doors. While screwing around with my interior panel one day I shined a light up inside the door while looking through an access hole. Low and behold I have some of the hardware needed for the lock. I can't stand not having three locking doors so went to making my own.

I hope this helps others that are needed to know what this hardware looks like. I did use an old service manual as a guide. For rod material I just took an existing one to the hardware store and got chunk of similar stuff.

Just need to trim the pop lock and put a plastic knob on it.
