    Good morning,

    Can anyone help me find a thread that would tell me what I can use to fix this problem? I been thinking super glue is gonna be my best bet but it might not hold for long.

    On the double cabs I’m pretty sure it’s just tightening a bolt on the back side. Check before you order @SkateMigs !

    Just replaced my door and internals recently. In my 02 you just remove the door liner and pop out a grommet. That gave me access to 2 bolts holding the handle assembly in place. Sorry I don't have pictures. Wasn't thinking about posting my door swap progress

    Thanks for the idea. Im hoping that’s the case so I won’t need to replace it. Just got a tool to help take the door panel off I’ll get to it Saturday.

    No worries. I think I know the bolts you’re talking about. I watched a quick video, seems like a simple fix.

    Looks like my handle is held together by 3 bolts & one had fallen out. After fishing inside the door I managed to find the bolt & send it home.
