I ask 1 question, why manufacturer not make in side handle same like doors handle?
Hey man great video. However I am confused about one thing. What was the purpose of putting a nut on the rod? What exactly does it do? Can’t you just reach in through the back window and push it to the side without putting the nut?
The purpose of the nut on the rod, for me, simply provides a larger surface to "grab." Nothing mechanical. Only functional.
01 ford explorer sport hatch window or hatch gait want open
What size nut did you use? Thanks
11mm
@@HelloPastorMike Thanks!!
What is the name of the yellow plastic piece that connects to the rod and the handle?
Mallory, I don't recall. Sorry.
@@HelloPastorMike thanks for replying it was worth a try lol I'm struggling to find this thing
I’m doing that and it makes the little noise but still won’t open
Ruu, any update on your progress?
nice bro lol
😎
Mine wont budge. Its stiff.
Tricia, any update on your progress?
@@HelloPastorMike hey! I ripped off the back plastic cover, out some WD40 and just open it from the back now pushing that yellow thing to the left.
You could have removed the plastic panel rather than sawing a square though it but whatever works for you bud
Salty, that’s the point. After repeated replacements of the part, by removing the plastic panel, I improvised and created a new, functional “whatever works” way to open the lift gate.
