Description
The Altman Easy Latch kit swaps the door latches in a 1967–1972 Chevy C10 or GMC truck for bear jaw rotary claw latches. Contoured jamb plates match your door's factory features — this is in no way a universal application. Each latch works with the stock exterior handle, interior handle and door lock cylinder.
Features
- No welding necessary.
- Works with exterior handles, interior handles and exterior lock cylinders.
- Case hardened latch paws, zinc plated with black oxide coating on the internal claws.
- Stainless steel striker pins.
- Everything you need for both doors: latch plates, vehicle-specific latches, templates, hardware, detailed instructions, striker plates and stainless steel striker bolts.
- Designed, manufactured and assembled in the USA, and also available for shaved-handle applications.

- No billet striker
- Add billet striker

Reviews
Altman Door Latches - 67-72 GMC Chevy Truck
Common questions
Which panel length do I need?
It depends on the handles you are keeping. If you are running the stock outside handles, choose the long panel option - the extra length is what reaches the factory handle linkage. If you are going to billet or hidden handles, the short panel is the one.
Will the doors still open from the outside?
Yes, provided you match the panel option to the handles you are running. Say which handles you have when you order if you are unsure and we will confirm the option before it ships.
How do I know it fits my truck?
This part is listed for 1967–1972 Chevy and GMC Blazer, C10, C20, C30, Jimmy, K10 and others. The full year, make and model list is in the Truck Compatibility tab on this page. If your truck has been modified, or you are between two of the year ranges we list, send us the year, make and model and we will confirm the fit before you order rather than after.
How long before it ships?
It is a stock item and leaves our warehouse in 1-3 business days. Transit after that is typically 2-5 business days in the United States. Larger orders can arrive in more than one box on different days.
What if it is not right for the truck?
You have 30 days from delivery to return it by mail. Return shipping is on you, and the part needs to come back uninstalled and unmodified - once a panel has been trimmed or welded it cannot go back. Made-to-order items are final sale. The full terms are on our returns page.
Can I install this myself?
It is designed for a home install with ordinary hand tools, and the fitment notes on this page list anything that needs drilling, trimming or welding. Where an installation guide or video exists for the part it is linked in the Installation tab.
