The way the rear doors are cut and put together internally, I am not sure how he was able to do that. I have the stock plastic squares that go around the door handle, but if I can get the armrests on there like he did, that might be a better option.
I doubt that there are internals in those doors. without the glass there isnt much need for anythin behind the door panel. however, I think the crew cabs did come with armrests in the rear? I thought I read somewhere that they were smaller and also used in econolines... mayybe Im thinking of the 67s... :?

No, the crew rear doors did not have armrests on them. They had a square plastic part that went around the door handle which worked as a pull... But they are not armrests. These are the same parts that were used from the Econoline vans and are no longer made. I have the stock pair from my crewcab and will probably use them.

I didn't think about the glass not being in those doors... You are right and that is how he got the armrests on the back doors. Good observations. Looks like I will just run the stock door pulls them. Its not as if I will ever ride in the backseat of my truck anyway. If someone wants an armrest, they can roll the window down! :lol:

is it the your worried about running the screw in to the glass?? and if so can't you just weld a stud on the door and use a nut to tighten the arm rest to the door?? now I have never seen a crew up close so I'm not see what you are .
