Cant get the rear cargo door to open at all. The back handle just uselessly flips in place and the handle on the inside does the same. Anyone know how to atleast get the door open so I can attempt to repair it? Least they didnt break another window tryin to get into my truck again.

Sounds like the linkage inside the door broke. I would try to remove the plastic pannel on the inside of the door to get to the lock mechanism. It should be pretty easy to see what busted.

Yeah the linkage mechanism can jam up because of dust etc. The rear barn door isn't sealed that well particularly if the internal plastic liner has been removed.
This happened to me on a camping trip and we had to half empty all our stuff through the back doors to expose the plastic trim on the rear door.
Removed that and sprayed the crap out of it with lubricant (WD40) no probs since (about 3yrs ago now).

I've had to reconnect the linkage in mine about every 2 years since '96...on my '92...it's only happened ONCE on the '95.
