Door & Ignition Lock Cylinder Replacements
IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it.

For any '80-96/7 F-series or Bronco, the best way to return the truck to new (un-worn) matched door & ignition keys (even '80-89s that used round-head door keys) is to buy an aftermarket (Standard DL140 or DL140T) pair of 8-cut door lock cylinders with new keys, and build a new Ford 1L3Z11582A or MotorCraft SW6383 8-cut lock cylinder kit to match those new keys according to this instruction sheet:



A pre-built set of aftermarket cylinders with genuine keys is available, but lower quality.

A bonus for '80-95s is that this allows the use of modern Bolt accessories (which don't work with the older 10-cut keys) like:
Cl.3-5 Receiver Lock Pin
Cl.1-2 Receiver Lock Pin
Padlock
Cable Lock
Tool Box Paddle Latch
Bare Cylinder
Trailer Tongue Lock Pin
Trailer Ball Lock Shield
Recovery Hook

If the key or lock cylinder won't turn the vehicle OFF, read this:
