Description
1947 – 1951 Chevrolet / GMC Truck Altman Easy Latch Kit
Door Latch Type: Claw-style
Door Latch Material: Steel
Quantity: Sold as a kit.
Notes: For use on trucks with stock exterior handles. Doors cannot be locked from inside by pushing down on the handles. Many applications only had passenger side key lock cylinders, so the driver’s side lock lever has been tightened down in the unlock position, so it will not accidentally lock. If using with a working driver side lock, slightly loosen prior to installing.
