99 expedition door latch replacement

I was needing to replace the drivers side front door latch on a 99 EB expedition. I was wondering if anyone had a diagram or instructions on how to get all the rods loose and in what order. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Does the rivet have to be drilled out of the actuator to get everything loose. Thanks

It will open from the inside, but not the outside. It all started when the rod from the tumbler to the latch came off...rolled the window down and it bent that rod, and messed up the latch. Ive had the door panels off and the latch is not working like the "good " passenger side is. i got the replacement parts from a salvage yard...just needing a little installition instruction.

Thanks
DJ

Do you have to drill out the rivet and remove the lock actuator to get the rod loose from it?
