richard-b61 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 The vent window handles on my B61 are broken off because they were rusted thru, but I still have the handles. Is there any way to repair these? The vent windows are still good, no need to replace them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vent windows are still good, no need to replace them.I believe that most of these trucks had handles missing, mine was no exception. I recall ajt finished his vent windows with new handles. You might send him a pm and get his advise. Seems that I recall him using a machine shop to make new studs to mount the handles. I used a local custom car shop and they knew just what I needed but it took them 6 months and they did nothing. I went and picked them up and will never send them a customer. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomastractorsvc Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I used a 1/4 inch grade 5 bolt and a grinder then tac welded the stud in and removed the push pin assembly from the handle. I was going to use a acorn nut but I ended up using a regular nut works fine. Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
