How-To Chevy & GMC Truck Door Assembly/Loading

David Welch gives us a few of his helpful handy hints on getting our doors back together on our classic Chevrolet and GMC Pickups. Sometimes it's been many months between when they were torn down and when we're ready to re-assemble, and that can make assembly quite confusing. With Dave's help, we'll get the guidance needed to put our doors back together without extra steps or doing damage to fresh paint and parts.

One of the very few c10 parts vendors that actually offers helpful tutorials like this one. Straight forward. Thanks

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

They help us sort out quality and fitment as much as they help you guys with projects, we're happy to do it!

I watched it with no sound and was amazed still. I hope this is the same way for the 1971 chevy pickup.

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

Yes, very similar process on the 1971.

[@jasonbaker8424]

Great video! Perfect explanation! Thank you!

[@francfurian8215]

I enjoyed that, clear & instructive. Do you have a video on how to fit your 1 piece glass conversion in a 55-59 pickup? Cheers😊

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

We don't, but we will add that to the list. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@francfurian8215]

BROTHERS Truck Parts thank you that would be handy😊

[@henrytupper6959]

Very good tutorial. Do these instructions apply to the g10 van also ? 1967.

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

Same basic principals apply to nearly any door.

[@greencommunitymovement785]

Great video. Very informative. Be nicer if it was closer so you can see a lot

[@shanepowell5545]

There is a left and a right to the window regulator, make sure that the regulator teeth will not interfere with the wing window post here I am taking it back apart lol

[@EliseoTorres-dr2xw]

Replaced the latch and and the door latch control on my 62 chevy truck but the door still wont close right and sometimes locks and won't open

[@rustynutzclassicrestorations]

I own a 1948 GMC truck and have a real problem with the passenger door . For some reason I can not get the door to open. I have checked the linkage and all looks good .. Lubed the hell out of it with penetrating oil and lube .. Ended up pulling the Lock key lock out of the door think it was the culprit .. and still would not open .. Rotated the regulator where the key lock would normally rotate to lock door and it rotates fine. So apparently its in the striker area not allowing the door to open using either inside or outside door latches .. Really scratching my head on what the issue is ..

[@adriantomlin2902]

Hey Dave! How bout a vid on a windshield install on a 60 to 63 wrap around with the chrome moulding?! Can't seem to find anything specific for that on You Tube. Thanks!

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

Excellent suggestion! We actually have a '63 here, so we'll put that vid on the list.

hi, I'm looking for video on installation of whole new door. Do you have a link to one? 1969 chevy c20.

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

We have a video about how to install the entire front end starting with doors. That would be a good one to watch because it goes into a lot of detail. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGjRkIpnft2IldU

[@sherrycarter6905]

How can I get the door to unlock when the door is closed .??? I shut the door with it locked and now I can not get it to open even using the key and looking into the door facing from inside it seems like everything is working but still will not unlock?????? Help me please

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

It sounds like the rod that connects the latch to the lock is disconnected, incorrect or damaged. Pull the door panel off on the inside and see if you can trouble shoot it from there

[@esmundolarajr3049]

Does the latch relay on a 68 c10 sit on the outside also?

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

No, the 67-72 runs inside the door.

[@Sundance7055]

the window rubber felt should go in first there is no way its going in with the window in.....at that exact point in the film you edited it and then it was done thanks now i have to take both doors apart

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

We install window channel felt with the glass in all the time. If you are having trouble there are some tricks you can use. You can apply a small amount a mildly soapy water which will help the channel slide down, or you can dust the channel and the rubber with some talcum powder and that will often help it slide down as well. It is absolutely not necessary to remove the glass when installing the channels.

[@johndudley5987]

Do you have a how to video on how to do a disk brake conversion on a 1970 Chevy 3/4 ton

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

Absolutely! Here's a link to the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZbFmGhnes2Yi9E You would need a "DELUXE" kit for your 3/4 ton so the ball joints will be compatible with the new spindles. Here's a link to the product category on our website: www.brotherstrucks.com/Front-Disc-Brake-Conversions/products/2139/

Do you guys have parts for a 89 square body dually

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

Yes we do. Check out our website www.brotherstrucks.com/ , Thanks!

[@siaosihanisi5261]

BROTHERS Truck Parts okay thank you

[@adriantomlin1362]

So I have a 61Apache and understand that you cannot replace the door latch with the glass in?

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

We'd have to do a little research on that exact truck, but at first glance it looks like it's possible if you roll the glass up and carefully remove the rear run channel. Then you can access the latch and swap it. When you're done just slide the run channel back into place and roll the glass down.

[@adriantomlin1362]

Is a 72 Chevy truck have the same assembly directions

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

Yep, they are all very similar.

[@carlosdebarros]

Is it the same for the 47 Chevy truck?

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

The basic concepts are the same on every Chevy truck.

I’ve got this job coming up on a Chevy 1950 3100, any chance of a video?

Nothing in the works specifically for the '50, but mostly the same process either way.

Awesome content as always! I just wish I had my truck already! Why are you cleaning the glass with that paper at the end?

[@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV]

Just to clean off the greasy hand prints, paper works great!
