The '80's trucks have em, there an exact replacement for out POS plastics ones, but they will still break also if you yank hard enough.

if your breaking handles--the pivot latch in the handle is wore--replace the whole assm--only way available from ford--and just replace the piece in the door by the handle--no need to replace the latch--
