Hello all!
Where can I buy new door locks for a 1977 Mustang II?
That’s what bolted in the door.

I’ve search here in Holland, no succes, Rockauto only has the strikers.
I need the lock itself, both sides.

Anybody has tips or links where to look?
Thanks in advance.

Regards,

I want latches that work, be it good used, new Originals or aftermarket.

The doors close now, but you have to throw it shut.
Tried to adjust the striker, but it only gets worse.
Have to tell that there are “new” doorseals (one year old now).
I suspect the hook in the latches, or the pins where on they turn. When closing the door shut, we have about 1/4” play on the latch/striker. Both sides.
It doesn’t work as it should be.

I saw your card, do you ship to the Netherlands at normal rates?
 
Use us post office priorty air mail to netherlands.
Question ate there nylon bushings on the door lock strikers still?
Have the drivers and passenger door lock latch assembley new original ford parts in stock passenger tunes 112.00 us dollars drivers run 136.00 use dollers. Shipping 46.00 air priorty mail for the set.
 
Ok, Thank you.
I didn’t know about the nylon bushings?
I’ll check that first, Maybe that’s the problem then...
I will let you know.
Thanks again.

Finally got a chance to look at the strikers.
Indeed, I’m missing the bushings.
Can you tell me the Outer diameter of the bushing?
And is it a special material?

I want to make them myself, shipping costs are way too high for two strikers from the states unfortunatly...

Thanks for all your help!
 
I made the nylon bushings for the strikers today.
I used nylon made for bearings, it was all I got, let’s see how long they last.
Doors are closing like a charm!

I want to thank Partsguy for the tip!
Sorry I didn’t bought anything....
