I've never lost my set of keys in all the years I've been driving. Except for this past week. My Dodge key/remote for my DD I have a spare of, but the price of a replacement is gonna suck. Whats worse, I only had 1 key to my 90' XJ, and it was on the same ring.

What are my options? I have an old key to a 02' WJ I used to own, but not the same pattern, is it possible to have the cylinder lock re-keyed to that key? Or am I better off buying a new lock/key for the column? And if so, any suggestions where?

 

Edit - Nevermind. Ebay is my friend. New cylinder lock & key for $22 shipped. And added note; never realized GM made the Jeep/Eagle keys back in the day, thought they looked familiar.

 

have a real lock smith remake your key from the tumbler

 

if you feel mechanically inclined... tear down your coulumn and either put in a new key cylinder you can pick up in the locoal parts shop ÈHelpÈ secion, or just remove the cylinder lock mechanism. then you wont need a key period. im not sure which part it is. havent been in my column in a while, and havent used a key in years lol

 

the whole column is actually gm. its the same in s10s, blazers, gimmys, and s15s, probly a few more
