OldDad67 Posted September 25 Report Share Posted September 25 What holds the front door key lock in place? I took this out several years ago and can't remember if a screw or clip holds it in position. Any help appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plymouthy Adams Posted September 25 Report Share Posted September 25 screw, you may have to move the door seal a tad to see the access hole...for sure this allen head set screw is likely now frozen in place and may be difficult to loosen if not impossible at this time given you did not take measures to prevent this when last serviced.

Here's a picture of the hole's location that is normally covered by the weatherstripping for the set screw (big hole on the left). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkede Posted September 25 Report Share Posted September 25 While were on the topic of key locks.... I've always been missing the tumbler on the driver's side. This means that I have to reach over from the passenger side and lock the door from the inside and then lock the passenger door with the key. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement for this? Attached is a picture of my two locks showing what's missing on one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Gooz Posted October 5 Report Share Posted October 5 Sorry for the long absences, I think the big hole i see If the is like my car there should be a tab that would move to the door jamb. My car is at the body shop or i would get you a picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
