73-87 Power Lock Parts ?

I am wanting to add power door lock actuators to my truck. I have a keyless entry system and I can handle the wiring, but on the hardware side I'd like to use a proper actuator, brackets, and rods that were designed for these trucks and will be easy to install. I checked with LMC and they don't seem to offer all the parts. Does anyone know if these parts are still sold anywhere?

I'm all for going to the junkyard if I have to, but these trucks aren't too common in the yards anymore so it may take some time to wait for a suitable donor to show up.

Also, if anyone happens to have pictures of the lock actuator, how it mounts, and how the rod connectors to the rest of the lock/latch those would be really helpful.

I would try Classic Industries and Summit Racing. I have found a lot of stuff at those places. Surprised LMC didn't have what you wanted. Good luck.

I've got a new lock harness if you need one-and an NOS lock relay too.
