So funny you posted this. Literally just used your old video to replace my 96 gmc suburban drivers door handle. 👍

Thank you for posting this!!! I’m not a car guy at all and the only thing I’ve ever replaced are the brake light bulbs. Thank you for putting the part numbers in as well. Very helpful because I had like 3-4 of those clips snap right off. Got it done in an hour or so and only cursed once.

Thanks for the video, just broke my door handle in my 97 GMC 3500 HD. Wasn't sure how to get to crank off for the window. Very helpful.

Super helpful! Personally, I cut the rivet with a pair of pliers, and didn't bother replacing it, other than that, it went pretty smoothly.

The 2 Phillips head screws in the handle how long are they? The truck I have don’t have the originals and the handle won’t stay snug
@DrShock2 жыл бұрын
They would be the same on both sides, if you have one side still. I don't recall their length exactly, but they are a bit longer than an inch or so.

I was thinking rods already bent back doors won,t open outside handles appearto be forced / Not sure how to fix this ?
@DrShock4 жыл бұрын
Not quite understanding your question, but the rods are a softer type metal as they are intended to be adjustable, slightly, as needed. So you should be able to straighten any bends out and retain the existing rods. if not, I'd suggest salvaging a new set from your local LKQ yard, they would be common across all years going back prior to 95 as well.

@DrShock4 жыл бұрын
GM dealer service will be exceedingly expensive if they perform the work tho. Also several of the parts you may need here are discontinued by GM. If you're not comfortable doing it yourself, I'd suggest a small local shop instead of the dealership.

@@DrShock Thanks i worked at a dealer in the 80,s so i understand it not always easy to get info or parts for older cars , Still salvage yards & internet are a big help , also being creative & glasses R useful . lol

Is the part the same for manual or electric lock?
@DrShock3 жыл бұрын
The interior handle assembly is the same yeah, just varies by trim color which are in the description text. The procedure to disassemble is the difference and why I have both flavors of it in two separate videos.

What size rivet did you use?
@DrShock3 жыл бұрын
I don't recall the specific size off hand. But I found a matching size to the original factory hole as part of the aluminum rivet kit that came with the Harbor Freight gun I bought many years ago. I would not presume it's anything unusual in size. The answer to this question would simply be the size that fits _snugly_
