Re: [Amc-list] Eagle door handle

[JOE FULTON <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think any Gremlin/Hornet or later handle will work
for an eagle (handles without the lock assembly in the
handle).  

Your door is probably sagging and hanging up on the
latch bolt, which puts a strain on the handle. 
Handles are weak castings.
