What's it like replacing the driver door handle? The lock cylinder has been broken for a year... Handle snapped yesterday though, and now I'm thinking I might be done with that bull****.

Broken door handle lever.

No big deal, remove the door card and the handle assembly removes fairly easily. Procedure is in Rave manual. Part of the **** that happens with 20 year old trucks

Get in touch with Paul Grant. I’m sure he has one. Then swap over the tumbler.

No death. Handle hath been replaced. However, now we got a battery that somehow my trickle charger won't charge. And she won't fire.
