Part Number: AEL-CT6466
Fits: 1964–1966 Chevy Trucks
Compatible with 1964, 1965, and 1966 models.
The Altman Easy Latch™ kit is a vehicle-specific, bolt-on rotary claw latch system. Each kit is engineered to work with your factory exterior and interior handles, as well as the original door lock cylinders, ensuring proper function and integration. Contoured jamb plates are designed to match your vehicle’s door profile for accurate fitment. All components are zinc plated for corrosion resistance, with case-hardened internal claws for long-term durability. Each kit includes everything needed for two doors: vehicle-specific latches, jamb plates, striker plates, stainless steel striker bolts, templates, hardware, and detailed instructions. The result is a smoother, more secure, and consistent door closing experience.
