Doug&Deb Posted August 22, 2021 Report Posted August 22, 2021 My door latch is worn out and I found this NOS repair kit. It came from Argentina of all places. It says to saw off the rivet end that holds the rotor in place and slide the new assembly over the shaft. I’m not sure how to remove the old rotor since there is metal in front of it. Anyone else ever seen this kit? Quote

busycoupe Posted August 23, 2021 Report Posted August 23, 2021 I have used a kit called a Roto Lokit. After you cut off the end of your lock you slip the rotor off of the shaft. Then slip on the new rotor and then slip the new housing over your cut off one. The new housing is held on with a set screw. Be aware, there are two different kits, one for the left front door and right rear door; the other fits the right front door and left rear. Be sure that you have the correct one before you cut your lock. Quote
Doug&Deb Posted August 23, 2021 Author Report Posted August 23, 2021 Do you have to cut the sheet metal that holds the rotor on? Quote
