Part number AEL-CT4751/PBCONV. Fits 1947-1951 Chevy trucks converted to 1952-54 push-button exterior handles or aftermarket KinDig push-button style handles.

Factory 1947-51 latches cannot work with push-button or paddle handles. This kit pairs the 1952-54 style push-button compatible Altman Easy Latch with 1947-51 specific jamb plates, striker plates and hardware so it fits the original cab and doors.

The kit covers both doors. It does not include exterior door handles or the hardware to install them, and it does not work with factory turn-down handles.

Installation takes about 6 to 8 hours plus extra time for the handle conversion. Skill level: intermediate to advanced. Power locks need Optional Lock Kit OLB-101 (sold separately).

Highlights: Rotary claw latch system, bolt-on, vehicle specific. Works with your factory exterior and interior handles and original door lock cylinders (see handle notes where they apply). Zinc plated parts with case-hardened internal claws for corrosion resistance and long life. Interior locking is not possible with this latch. Power lock actuators are needed to lock from the inside. Installation: about 6 to 8 hours with a cutting wheel or air saw, drill and general hand tools.
