Altman Easy Door Latches

Been working on the new Altman door latches between cold weather and snow storms.  Cut out the area stated in the template directions with a die grinder cutoff wheel on the door edge and installed the latches. The 1/4 inch nuts holding the mounting plate are hard to get too so used some J&B Weld to hold them in place. Seems to work okay so far. The latches worked okay before mounting in the door but the looseness of the operating arms needs to be tightened up. After installing everything on the drivers door, I mounted it on the cab. The door shuts and latches great but doesn't open worth a hoot yet. More tweaking to do. I think they will be a great added safety feature when I get them figured out.
Big storm here today and snowing as we speak. We need to shoot the ground hog.
