Jaime Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Hello, I am trying to replace the Door lock cylinder on my 88. I tried Autozone, Napa, & RockAuto. They all have the generic cylinder that doesn’t seem to work. Does anybody know where I can get a cylinder that does work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Mopar or team Cherokee has the right ones. But the Mopar one you have to assemble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaime Posted April 20, 2020 Author Share Posted April 20, 2020 Do you by chance have the part number? The more I look into it on both sites the pictures just don't seem to match what I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglescout526 Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Actually I still may have my aftermarket set. I can go consult my parts catalog and post the number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am struggling with that right now. I bought some (90+ locks thinking I could transfer the levers over from a pre 90 cylinder. No dice. Now I am on the hunt for some old 91 locks so I can grab the levers. In 93 the lock changed again so the 91 key won't work with a 93 - 96 they are fatter. None of the 91+ locks come with a lever attached. Omix don't make a 91+ lock assembly. The 93 plus locks are available but you can't use them either with a pre 90 lever. So it is really hard to upgrade from a single sided to double sided key setup. Ignition locks are much easier. Pretty much interchangeable.

Jaime Posted April 22, 2020 Author Share Posted April 22, 2020 I went to 4WP store here in Vegas and ordered a lock set from Crown. The picture showed the same lock that I have, with the lever. It will get here in about a week and half. I'll let you know how it turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Limeyjeeper Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Just for future reference for somebody. Pre 91 lock cylinder Part No 83505067 Black J8122874 Chrome. 91-92 lock cylinder 4637581 1993 4730931. Pre 90 cylinder kit comes with lever. 91-93 does not. Pre 91 lock on the left 91-92 lock on the right. 91 cylinder is much thinner, smaller lever and double sided key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxyjeep Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I got a bunch of cylinders from the junkyard and am going to key them all to match my ignition cylinder. Re-keying shouldn't be too tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re-keying shouldn't be too tough. A locksmith told me that won't work. The ignition is a 6-bit lock (6 tumblers), and the door cylinders are 5-bit. If that's correct (and I have no reason to doubt him), what you want to do is impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, should have mentioned that. To add to this, you could likely remove the 6th tumbler from your ignition cylinder to match your door cylinders.

Just took a look at my two original keys side-by-side. Looks like the door key had a blank spot closest to the key ring end. You could probably remove this tumbler from your ignition and key tumblers 1-5 to match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The locksmith told me that's not correct. I don't know. It wasn't worth it to me to waste money trying something that the professional had already told me couldn't be done.

I was in the shop to buy locksets for my house, but I took the opportunity to ask a professional about the possibility of converting my '88 to a single key vehicle. He had nothing to gain by telling me it couldn't be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaime Posted May 2, 2020 Author Share Posted May 2, 2020 I got the lock set yesterday and installed them today. They work like a charm but what a pain to install. I also installed some window sash that I got at the junkyard. And look what I found behind one of them door panels. You can’t read anything but it’s there.

Basajeep88 Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 I know this is an old post but it helped me out. I was able to find a lock set on Amazon for $38 using the part number 11813.02. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvagedcircuit Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Oh boy. It looks like I purchased the Standard Motor Products DL-22 locks for my '88 comanche. I have to stop trusting rockauto on part compatibility. Now to check if mine have the tabs on back.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxyjeep Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Go to a junkyard and grab a bunch. Then take them apart to re-key to match your key. Don’t ask how I know 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
