door lock actuator ?

I bought a new door lock actuator for the right rear door on my '01 crewcab. Now the right front is acting up. I was thinking I would do the 1¢ fix on the old actuator and use it in the front door if it will interchange. Will it?

Yes. Both are rights.

Good call. You'll never buy another one.

Well, maybe never....

The link Geoff put up is great. I fixed both sides of mine last year and it still works like new saves some bucks for sure.

The thing that honestly took me the longest was taking it apart and making sure not to break anything. I think the first one took me about an hour. I did the other 3 in just over an hour.
