question to add

I'm also looking for a left door lock rod, and are there retainers of some sort for the lock cylinders??? What holds them in place?

Thanks in advance

there is a nylon swivel retainer , similar if not the same as the truck tailgate rods up to 93

i think he is talking about the lock retainer with the 2 screws

 

[Chryco Psycho]

yeah you are right , there is a unique C shaped cup that holds the lock into the handles , different L & R too

was told the back pieces were the rod hooks on the lock is differ to got the retainers from [email protected] still need rods

Yes I need the lock cylinder retainers and the left lock rod.

These are different than a lock rod retainer (plastic clip.)

I made the door handle rods out of rods from another late model car.


The lock rods are a bit more complex to fab without the lock cylinders in place.
