Door Handle and Door Pin Replacement

[94Sierra4x4]

As far as the pins go, yes.

Ya. The outer panel will have to be taken off.

I'll be needing to replace external handle & latch, because the rod connecting the two, has busted the clips off either end(i'm assuming. atleast one end broke -.-)

Make sure the red, plasti-coated rod tip is inserted into the hole in the latch mechanism. This operates the latch from the exterior handle.

Believe it is the rod more inside the door, in the second pic..

Anyone that's done this did they have a hard time getting the bolt in that you access in the hole behind the door panel after you take it off? I did my pass side handle seemed to be on good, now its a lil loose so I had the panel off and seemed to cross thread the bolt at a slight angle, its hard to line the bolt right when you can't look down and see like you can when the window is down lol, any help?

Go slow, put bolt in socket on an extension and thread it in by hand, definitily don't want to crossthread it in there

So my hinges/pins are pretty shot, and I noticed a couple people mentioned replacing the strikers. Are replacing the strikers necessary? Or should I spend the little extra money and just replace them?

I would think anything 4" or longer.

Replacing the striker would be a good idea.
