Recently purchased an '89 K2500 for our non-profit...
The previous owners were likely purveyors of, um, recreational substances. Outer door handle is 100% missing. Inner doesn't work either.
On the outside they somehow managed to attach something like forceps so you reach in the door cutout where exterior handle should be and push down on forcep handles whilst sticking out your tongue and squinting just right, and door usually opens
I have on order:
1)exterior handle
2)key lock cylinders
3)actual latch mechanism
What I don't know is what connects exterior handle to latch mechanism? Is this the correct part??
