Re: Topkick door handles.
I had em on every truck before I got a 4 door Tahoe. Love em, so much easier to open. Specially in winter when the door freezes to the seals n rips ur hand off the handle, hurts like hell. Still have a set....

Re: Topkick door handles.
Yep, have them on my flatbed, link should be in signature. Mine were crusty when I salvaged them, had them blasted and powder coated with a gloss finish.

Re: Topkick door handles.

The install is almost exactly like replacing a flat exterior handle, the only thing you need to be aware of is swapping the lock cylinders in the handle: driver for passenger and vice-versa, this will maintain the correct clocking.

Re: Topkick door handles.
^^^ yep. I got my handles from 1a auto then modified the lach rod. And bypasses the lock rod. I have remote start and keyes entry so it doesn't bother me that the locks are just for looks.and no longer work
