matteo Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 My car itself is still down at school but i have the doors up here with me for the summer. i don't know if you guys have the same problems as i do with my doors but the window crank stud has lost all of it's teeth on both doors, and the locking mechanism doesn't move at all. i took the cardboard and vynl off to see what i could do and i replaced the locking cylinder still with no help. it seems like both sides of the doors are welded together from the factory and now i can't get in to do like any work. i was thinking about taking everything out of the door and replacing the handles and locking assembly with poppers, and the window cranking assembly with power windows. how is this usually done? where are some good places to get the parts? thanks, Matteo '72 240 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatMan Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Unfortunately, you have to have pretty small hands. It is possible to take the inner workings apart, piece by piece, and then reassemble. Here's a good write-up on power windows: http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20276 There is a company called Autoloc that I have heard makes decent auto door locks, don't have any links or specifics, though.
