Re: 1937 Ford Tudor door handle droop
Thanks everyone for the feedback. After taking another look I think "r reed" and "4tcoupe" might be onto my particular problem. I originally thought the springs might be the problem. But the slop in the mechanism that allows the handle to droop appears to be caused by rounding of the square holes in the mechanism that the shaft goes through. The shaft does not appear to be twisted. I attached a photo to try to show how the hole is rounded. Guess I'll have to try to find someone who can add some weld metal and then file it square again. Are repops of these mechanisms available?
