'80-96 Grab Handle Installation
IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it.

After finding a suitable grab handle in a junkyard (this one is probably from an Explorer), screw its bottom end to the raised area on the A-pillar. 1) Cut a scrap of steel into a strip. 2) Bend an angle similar to that raised area, and put 2 holes in it for mounting it by screws or welding. Screw the handle to the strap and mark the strap's location on the A-pillar. Drill a hole under the raised area of the strap for the handle's screw tip. 3) Remove the handle and attach the strap. 4) Check the fit. 5) Replace the A-pillar trim and install the handle.
