You know you can get those at autozone right? I've already replaced my drivers one.

You broke the part that the door handle connects to and the cable. If i were you id visit the junk yard and pick one up.

You to can get the gears from oreillys for the same price and when i did my rear window and passenger gear they had them in stock. Theyre all the same gear i believe.

Cables & handles are available aftermarket at any parts store and also Ford dealerships. Not worth putting worn out stuff from the JY in.

*** EDIT ***

The handle breaks, the door cracks, and the cable snaps due to the bushing being gone from the striker pin and not keeping the latch lubed. Cable replacement is kinda a pain.

Yes. All auto parts stores carry this normally. I sent that link to show what he needed. I have a F150 coming in for this I can do a how to on repairing this and the inside door handle if there is not already something adequate on FSB?

You can also cut your own replacement dowels as the gear is usually ok. I like aluminum so I can sever arms and fingers if needed.

Im sorry philo i didnt realise you had posted that for him i thought he posted that. That makes more sense now as amazon usually shows you the good pics.

I'd like a "How TO" on replacing the gear in the window?

As UNREAL as that truck is - don't be motivated too much... It's 2wd!

Keep the 4!

But yeah, that truck is as clean as they get!

The front is down right sexy.... Roll cage, steering, skid plate wider beams.

Loosing 4x is not an option
