| | THANKS!
For helping keep this great
old truck web site
on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Sep 2015 Posts: 96 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2015 Posts: 96 | Can someone tell me if the handle on the right rear barn door is the same handle used on the 47 to 51 cab doors? I have 52 GMC Sub and want to get a new handle. Lots of rust bubbling up through the chrome. They look to be the same but wanted to make sure. Lock set, door locking button, and ignition still keyed alike. Locksmith made new ones. azcornman | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 | Yes and/or No, and, it depends. https://www.stovebolt.com/ubbthread...an_outside_rear_door_han.html#Post247546Another old post contained this comment: "Keep the handle and bezel (escutcheon?) together. I had two sets from different years and the location of the handle-shafts pin-holes and the barrel in bezel/escutcheon were different." | | | | | Joined: Sep 2015 Posts: 96 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2015 Posts: 96 | Thanks for the link Tim. I remember reading about the sagging handle but not the interchangeability of them. Maybe a trip to a plating company will be the easiest route. Thanks again. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | | | | | | Joined: Sep 2015 Posts: 96 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2015 Posts: 96 | That is great news Alvin. That is certainly doable. Now to see if any of the vendors will sell just one handle. Thanks a bunch for the info!!

Now some will sell you just one. If not, maybe do like I did. Buy two and sell the other on the Stovebolt ! | | |
