Sorry for misleading you,,,,, I thought that 62 was the change over year
from the spring clips to the screw,,,, but it must have been 63,,,,,,, the
tools are not expensive, you can do a search of ebay or even try your
local
supply house,,,,, just put in, door handle tool, and it will bring up
various type of them, and as was explained you can use most any flat tool
such
as kitchen items (spatula) screwdrivers, hacksaw blades,,,,,,, after you
get your first one off, the rest will be easier as you see how they work

If I remember right, all you need is a hacksaw blade. You will have to
push the door panel into the door, slide the blade between the handle and
the
door panel until it lays on top of the U shaped pin holding the handle
on. It is tricky and may take you some time, but it works. You need to
use
the saw part as a pushing tool to lock onto the U pin and push it off.
It
would be so much easier if I could explain it in better terms, or if I
could send you better instructions, but I can't. Just keep working it
until
one comes off, then the others will be easier. You are correct on the
seat.
You need to push it from front to back and lift at the same time, it
will
come out very easily. Have done both of these projects many times.
Once
you got it, you will never forget how easy they are for removal. Now,
when
you are ready to put the door panels back on and attach the door
handles,
you put the U pin all the way onto the handles. Line them up with the
crank
mechanism and tap on with a rubber mallet, may take a good hard tap, but
it will go on and lock securely

Hi Guys,
I'm stripping my '62 Dodge Phoenix (same a 4 door Dart) so it is ready
for
paint. However, I am stuck - can someone advise the easiest way to
remove
the window crank handles?? I have a Dart, Lancer & Polara workshop
manual
... but it refers to a special tool. Is there another way of getting
them
off without this tool so that I can remove the door panels, etc. As you
can
imagine special tools would be rare here in the land down under.
Additionally, I need instructions on removing the back seat base. I'm
guessing it needs a good thump along the front of the base, and lifting
at
the same time.
I look forward to the responses from those who have tackled these tasks
in
the past.
Cheers,
Tony
