buck987si Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Hey guys, my driver's door lock cylinder crapped out on me and I've got a new set. Standard part #DL22 The new one is very different then the original, not even close for the connecting rod pieces. Anyone else run into this dillema? After searching through here very thoroughly, I cannot find a "self help solution". Here's a pic of the new and old cylinders with the connecting piece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buck987si Posted June 17, 2011 Author Share Posted June 17, 2011 I've gotten this lock cylinder set from Amazon. Both Amazon and Rock Auto Parts list this as the proper replacement. Anyone out there who can help?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1A1TankerTom Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 I ran into this problem. When I bought my truck the PO told me the door locks were broken and gave me the same door locks that you bought. They obviously will not work. So I ended up sucking it up and ordered a OEM set from teamcherokee.com. They were expensive, I think like 40 bucks for the set with keys and they worked perfect. I just checked their site and they are out of stock right now. I guess the other option is getting some from the junk yard if you can find one that has the keys.

buck987si Posted June 17, 2011 Author Share Posted June 17, 2011 Thanks M1A1TankerTom, words that I was hoping not to be confirmed. Isn't it strange that more than one reliable site would say that it is compatible? TeamCherokee being out of stock was the main reason I had to try some other places. No go for me with a wrecking yard nearby. Will have to send back and try another brand I guess. Plan C would force me to get a complete set off of a '98 Cherokee(I think I read somewhere) that would allow me to have one single key for doors and ignition. Still open to any suggestions or help, maybe the rod connector that matches the Standard lock cylinders, but what yr and model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philbert001 Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 That appears to be a lock cylinder for a later XJ/ZJ, when they put the factory alarms in em, because it has the nipple on the back for the lock position sensor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kro10000 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Check your local auto parts store, they usually have several common lock cylinders in stock. I'll check tomorrow when I go in to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kro10000 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Unfortunately it looks like the ones we carry at O'Reillys are the incorrect type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpdriver1 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 found this at http://www.4ws.com -- it is also listed with crown automotive -- maybe your local parts store can order from crown for you -- it is #8122874K2 Image Not Found Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philbert001 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Just go to the parts store, and ask for lock cylinders for an 89ish chevy truck. (That's where our ignition switches and door locks came from, as well as steering column and everything on it/in it.) I would think that will get the job done for ya!)

tj21 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Please let us know if you find something to work. My doors haven't been locked in 10 years. Not much to steal in there, but would be nice to have the option of locking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kro10000 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Chevy lock cylinders are different, also that crown number does not cross under anything in our E catalog, ill dig into some paper catalogs when I get a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a chevy steering column, and chevy keys for the ignition and the door locks. I don't see why they would use chevy keys, just to design their own lock cylinder.

Alanjoor Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 My friend faced this similar problem with their truk's lock. He get new one from near store and replace old lock cylinder. Any expert lock smith can do that easily. My suggest to repair from lock smith who charge little bit commission against their services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
