The window has to be all the way down before the handle will work.

there are pictures of the tailgate there and there is a video of what happens when i pull the handle

 

Are the cables routed properly? Are they hooked into the retainers? Make sure the sliding mechanism for the lock is sliding it's full ranged and lubed.

 

The door is locked. Unlock it.

 

i dnt even have the little knob to unlock it, which piece moves to unlock it?? i bought the truck when it was like this, hopefully i can figure this stupid thing out soon...cuz its hella annoying...loL

 

This was the best pic I could get.

Hope this helps you figure out what you need. The rod that controls the lock is definitely awol.(maybe that's all?) That rod makes a turn -just past where it goes out of sight - and goes staight to where the lock button used to be. (I guess that makes at least two pieces missing)

Looks like I might have overdone it with the grease... I forgot I did that.

Good luck.

 

great, that helps, thanx man, i appreciate it..now im gonna go sort through all my extra parts...loL

 

ok, so i got it working finally, but i am missing the rod and knob for the lock...anyone no where i can get one?
