george, I have a 64 factory service manual, and as best as I can tell,from the illustrations of the latch mechanism, it appears to be the same. (rotor and housing) and the striker looks right. It's gotta be the same thing?
I think the 65 models may have had the new design for the latch.?I notice that the 64 fsm says the hinge design is new, though. so I guess I won't be
asking you for those.could you go ahead and send, just me, an email with a quote for the thing (door lock rotor assembly) or latching mechanism, plus the attaching screws and whatever the shipping costs are. and unless someone knows for sure, if it won't fit ... I think I would very much like to get it , thank you! also, if you could send me a picture of it, that would help with the id.
and unless you've removed these before and/or don't have a fsm? I could send you some copys of the pages outlining the procedure for removal of it with the illustrations and all. let me know and
thanks again Schuyler Schuyler V. Wrobel Artist & Illustrator <artbysky.org> sky62@xxxxxxxxxxxxx On Sep 2, 2007, at 1:05 AM, george smith wrote:
Pretty sure I have a mechanism on my extra drivres door from a 64 HT.Anyone know if that will work? --- sky62 <sky62@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:the drivers side door latch on my 62 Dodge wagon has worn out to the point that it won't hold the door shut anymore. that star shaped click roller gizmo can be turned backwards, which of course it should not do. is there a way to rebuild the latch? maybe by pining the roller back on the shaft it turns on? I've been looking all over the net and ebay for another one, but with no luck. I did see a rebuild kit for the 50's style one, which is bigger and shaped differently, though? so I wonder if the 62 - 64 style latch is rebuild-able? or does anyone know if I can swap the one from the rear door? do the linkages hook up the same way? I'd rather fix the rear door, permanently shut, if I have to go that route. but I don't want to take all the doors and linkages apart unless I'm sure the swap will work? does anyone have an extra latch. or drivers side door, that has a working latch they can part with? or is there ANY other type of latching mechanism that will fit and work in my type of car door? I'm really getting tired of driving with one hand on the wheel and the other holding the door shut, especially on right-hand turns. plus there's no way to secure the vehicle! even when locked the door just pulls right open without pushing in the button. please, any help with this will be greatly appreciated! thanks Schuyler Schuyler 62 Dodge Dart 440 wagon w/ Poly 318<http://www.1962to1965mopar.ornocar.org/ml-wrobel62.html>FYI - I Do the Decal designs for the Poly head 318 and more! email me with your needs - <sky62@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ---- Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
