Pete M Posted June 18, 2021 Posted June 18, 2021 I've sent them a note asking if the keys are 88-89 like the title or 79-86 like the compatibility chart shows. I'm assuming they are 86-90 compatible ones. https://www.ebay.com/itm/284330245541?fits=Make%3AJeep&epid=1223520792&hash=item4233673da5:g:AQ8AAOSwMXdfvUVf
eaglescout526 Posted June 19, 2021 Posted June 19, 2021 Such a confusing rabbit hole the key thing is. I wish I knew better but all I know is that keys that have an A on them are different than keys that have a J. Same goes for the GM keys as I think theirs follows the same lettering idea. Course that’s the ignition. The locks I don’t know much about. I should compare my two keys and see if RA5 is that much different between 84 to 88
JolietJEEP'84 Posted June 19, 2021 Posted June 19, 2021 If it's J they should fit 86-90. These as are getting pricey though.

scaleless Posted June 19, 2021 Posted June 19, 2021 Oh yeah, don't let that fool you. Jesser's has a huge trove of AMC key blanks. Also from somewhere in the 70s Jeep keys were RA4 for the ignition and RA3 for the locks, then 1985 switched to RA5-J for the ignition and kept RA3 for the doors.
Kaiserman Posted June 20, 2021 Posted June 20, 2021 They are 86-90. I emailed them about rhe availability of them and they listed them on ebay and sent me the link in response. Not cheap but I didn't see them anywhere else.
GrandComanche Posted June 20, 2021 Posted June 20, 2021 Team Cherokee has NOS blanks for $10. I bought a pair about a month ago. https://teamcherokee.com/key-blank-set-cherokee-comanche-1984-1990/
Pete M Posted June 20, 2021 Author Posted June 20, 2021 yup, they have eh pentastar ones. much more common and still work just fine.
