power windows and locks swap
hi,
i am going to look at a 2002 diesel 5 speed dually this weekend,and the only issue i can see at this point is,it doesnt have either of these options. i have tried a search and really couldnt find much,so i was wondering if it has been done,and how much work/mods i would have to do with converting factory power options into this truck, surely i can find factory parts in the j/y for a half decent price. and if i can get it all transferred over and working, what about the factory keyless entry, would the computer stuff already be in the truck,just need a remote,and program it??? thanks alot.

I had a dealer add an aftermarket key less entry to my plain 04 1500. I looked up costs, and hardware new is a couple hundred, plus install which if you are handy could do yourself. Just tap in some power wires and such. Not sure bout the windows, but with time and effort it could probably be done as well. Lots of wiring if you want full control of all windows from the drivers seat... but if you only wire power to each door and a switch in each door for control it wouldn't be much worse that running a stereo system.

yea i was thinking it would be wired, i would hope that i could simply bolt in the power window regulator assembly/and locks if nothing else i know they make a universal wiring kit for the windows,biggest thing is simply bolting the regulator in.i have wired many stereo system's,and am fairly mechanically incline. so if nothing else maybe ill try it and do a write up about,if i actually buy the truck to start with. hopefully going to see it thurs.
