Door Actuator Question

Hi Everyone,

Now before some flames me

, I have read several of the threads regarding the door actuator repair. I'm clear on the concept, but have a silly question.

I found the ones in the front, but I have a crew cab and cannot for the life of me find the ones for the back doors.

Can someone point me in a direction?

Thanks.

I just replaced the front passanger side actuator today on my crew cab. I'm not really sure where you are looking, but if you follow the door lock that sticks out of the door panel down, it will take you to it. I have not done one of my back doors yet. You might be looking at the wrong part of the door. The front doors have the lock on the part of the door closest to the back, and the back doors, have the lock on the side of the door closest to the front. Are you looking in the right part of the door?

I just had my 99's back door apart and the actuator is in the same spot as the front doors. Right by the door latch. It appears to be a bit smaller then the front but easy to see once you take your door panel off and look in the big hole in the door. It could be the same size, but not sure. I didn't take it out.
