If you can't find an early (lock in handle) door for your bus this might be for you. This is the whole lot across the door and the bit for the B post, but not the handles or key, though the key number is stamped on the barrel and visible without dismantling anything. There are even later types with a buffer instead of the hook, I have no idea when the dates change but as this retains the hook type catch but with separate lock I assume this is about 74/75 to??? whenever the buffer type came in. The part number on the lock mechanism is 224843653a. The B post bit is in very good order. The rest is dirty, now cleaned looking for the part number. Other end complete with spring and link. What shall we say. £50 + post? I'm fairly sure this will work with any door that has the separate handle and lock.
224 843 653 A = August '73 onwards, RHD. All models (for panel vans only up to chassis 216 20156 733).
Hi Zedders, I know this is an old thread but do you by any chance still have the locking mechanism please? I look forward to hearing ftom you. Many thanks, Christopher
I've both early and late complete mechanisms for LHD if anyone needs one. I don't have any RHD, only LHD so.....for offside sliding doors
I'm not sure if this was in the stash of @zedders parts, but if anyone still wants it let me know and I will have a rummage.
