Review on ๐Ÿ”’ Dorman 937-662 Liftgate Lock Actuator for Optimal Compatibility with Ford Models by David Shah

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy assembly Suitable for engines

Easy assembly. Replacing the lock is the hardest, but YouTube shows how to do it. The locking mechanism rotates and is held in place by a spring-loaded pin. To remove it from the old mechanism, turn it over and use a drill to hold the thing in a vice and then drill through the plastic against the area that is the long side of the lock. This elongated part holds the spring loaded pin. After piercing the plastic along with the metal, you should be able to see a shiny brass pin. Just insert it with a nail and rotate the toggle switch assembly. He has to go. Or, if you want something fun, use a big drill and drill out two shiny rivets from the metal side. Those are threaded rivets. Then break off any plastic tabs holding the item together. Let the pieces fall out and find the small locking pin that you need to press.
