They should come out if you have the door panel off.

Yes they will, very easily, but before that you must have them loose from the latch, handle, lock cylinder, etc. What i am asking is how to get them loose from everything.

On the dentside, I am not sure you CAN get the rods out without unbolting at least the inside handle and latch mech. That is how I do it anyway.

On your red Ranger you unclip the yellow clips off the rods.

On your 10th gen, I don't know at this time.

hey i appreciate it. I wasnt sure how to go about it. I had an 82 and the rods on it were pretty easy, but they all just made a 90 degree into the clips. The ones on my dentside make an S shape into the clips and it has really been buggin me. thanks for the help
