Re: Why bear claw latches?

This is a no brainer if you have driven an old truck for some time. At one point or another they are going to open on you. Always when you least expect it and usually around a corner. I am no great fabricator but did my own and the door handle mechanism even lined up perfect. Well worth the investment. Cheaper than losing a passenger or having your truck drive off without you. I have install pics somewhere, will look to post
