Thanks for the quick response Kevin ...

Really bad inside the cab with all the rat turds ...LOL! .. I wear a mask when in there just incase of airborne stuff, but that's a different story .. Reason I'm trying to get the door open for MAJOR CLEAN OUT >>
However, I will look at the latch again and try a packing hook to maybe push the Safety Release downward .. Really tight inside the door and hard to see all the moving parts.
Tried comparing what I have on the drivers door (which opens correctly) and looked at every aspect of the door latch system .. But never having pull one to look at the operation. You pics certainly gives me a better observation of the operation.

- 1) So with the Safety Release Latch in the downward position, allows the Latch Barrel to free roll?
- 2) The square hole in the two pics .. is that for the door handle or passenger side door lock?


Push come to shove - I wear a #13 boot .. so I may need that additional 1" to help un-jar the door .. LOL
