1961 Fleetside. inside the doors, under the lock and strike plate are what look like door guides. They are shaped almost triangular and bolt to door with two bolts. There is a matching guide slot in jam of door. looks to help guid door and keep from sagging, I have lost the drivers side!!!!! Checked with every parts house I can think of, no avail..........

Just a reminder to anyone who replies, do not make this into a Want to Buy or Sell type post as it will get axed.

That would be great, I should have expressed more about what I was looking for, and that was a source for hard to find parts such as this.
Thanks

the hard part is finding one that isn't all ground through due to bad door adjustment/worn out hinges... I have a bunch of bad ones!

Or one you can't get the two screws out of. I've encountered that also.
