How to Remove the Door Handles From a Chevy S 10

A properly working door handle makes for an important part of your Chevy S-10 if you do not want to get into your truck like a "Dukes of Hazzard" television star. The metal used to manufacturer the brackets on the door handle, known as "pop steel," is a relatively soft metal usually used on low-wear items. Over time, however, the brackets can become weak and eventually break.

Instructions

    1

    Open the door, and remove the screws that secure the inner door panel to the sheet metal on the inner door with a screwdriver.

    2

    Pull on the upper left corner of the door to loosen the door panel from the sheet metal. Small plastic tabs connect the door panel with the sheet metal about every 10 inches. As you pull on the panel, pull the tabs out of the sheet metal.

    3

    Locate the back of the door handle by looking through the upper holes in the sheet metal. On the left side of the door handle, youll see a long bar connected to a piece of metal on the side of the handle. The bar moves when you lift up on the handle and opens the door latch.

    4

    Remove the metal bar from the left side of the handle by pulling the bar to the left. (The bar is not attached with bolts.)

    5

    Lift up on the handle from the outside door, and remove the two bolts located under the handle with wrenches. The bolts secure the handle to the sheet metal on the outside of the door.

    6

    Pull the handle out of the door.
