Missing 710K door lock key missing, where to get replacement

Post by lrowner »

I have just bought a 73 710K, but it has no keys for the door locks.
Is there a standard key that fits all 710Ks or will I need to either replace the lock barrels or have a locksmith make a special key?
Any recommendations appreciated

Dave,
It's much cheaper to have the lock out of the door and take it to the lock smith.
I have put locks on my doors and they are easy to take out and put in.
I have never heard of standard keys for locks except the ignition and battery key.

I had door keys cut to code in the UK. See this thread:

Personnaly I would pull all your door locks and either disasemble them yourself and do a complete cleaning and lubing of them and then bring one in to have a key cut. Or bring them all in and have the lock smith do everything. I always pull my locks on my older vehicals and do this, I would rather spend an hour or two with them on the bench cleaning all the dirt and grime out of them then having to replace them when something either breaks or wares out... Problem with these old trucks is if the door is locked you cant open it at all, even from the inside.
