I want to put bearclaw latches on my 49 3100. Would like to keep the outside handles. I've seen a variety of latch sizes and quite a spread of prices. Whose would you recommend? Cutting and welding is not a problem so I've not considered the bolt-in type.
I used a set of
large bear claws that I got off Amazon for $35. I decided to
shave my door handles but to use the stock handles you can use a set of
these to simplify matters. I came across a set of marine style locks that would allowyou to lock both doors. I'd looked long and hard at the Altman setup as well but figured that I could go this route for less than $100.
