Replacing Door Handle

[ss101504]

Hey Hows It Goin? Here In The Next Few Days, I Will Be Replacing The Drivers Side Front Outer Door Handle On A 2001Ford Explorer XLT, And I Was Wondering What Size Rivets Do I Need To Use To Ensure That It Wont Just Pop Off From Using Small Rivets.

Also I Know This Is In The Wrong Category, But I Will Also Be Doing The Same Thing To The Drivers Side Inside Door Handle On A 1992 Chevrolet Caprice, And Would Like To Know The Same Thing.

Thanks For Any Help Yall Can Provide!!!

The rivets are 1/4 inch rivets. If you don't already have a heavy duty rivet tool for these, the least expensive route I've found is via Harbor Freight. The heavy duty rivet tool comes with 1/4 inch rivets.

I can't help on the Caprice. Doesn't it take a long time to capitalize every word of every sentence? It sure makes it difficult for me to read it.

Hey thanks very much for the help. As for the capitalization of every word, kinda a habit I developed in the Navy, and it actually takes me longer to type normally. lol.
