Door lock problem??

I've searched, but haven't come across this yet. I have a 1996 F350 crew cam, power door locks work like a charm, doors unlock with the key, my problem is the previous owner removed all the pull levers in the top of the door panels used to unlock the doors from the inside. I need to know how to replace these parts. I know I can get what I need from the dealer, but can someone give me a little guidance on how to fix this once I get the parts. I can't get to anything inside the rear doors without drilling out all the rivets and removing my windows/regulators.

Any help would be great............

Do you mean that the door lock ***** are missing? If so, you can still push the rod down to lock the door. Pulling the handle up should unlock them anyway. To replace them just get some ***** off of NPD, LMC, Ebay, or salvage yard and screw them back on.

no, I mean the rod itself is bent/not working/messed up. You can't push or pull the rod up/down but the power lock part works just fine.

If you cant get the door open you will have to pull the seat and then pull the door panel from inside the truck.

do the door lock actuators freeze up on these trucks causing this or is it a door lock mechanism issue.

I know the door locks can freeze up, in several vans (use same mech iirc) the rod itself moves just fine but the key part wont work.

Not sure how the rods on the tops of the doors dont move unless they arent connected.
