vent window latch question
on a 79 f150 reg cab. are the vent window latches supposed to lock in place when closed. and then you push the chrome pin in to open the latch ? am i wrong about that ?
i have a set off of a 79 that lock and on a 78 E150 that lock when closed. according to lmc you have to buy the additional lock assembly to keep someone from opening the latch.

thanks
hey Bill - if you read this do any of your diagrams show a " pivot washer" in behind the latch ? thanks

That’s correct, when you close the latch, the pin is supposed to pop out and lock it in place. I have found that the spring is too weak or that there is too much friction on that pin - so it’s hit or miss. This is on my ‘79 f100
