I need to replace my driver's door lock tumbler. Do you have one available? Please PM me or respond to this thread. Thanks.

Do you need just the wafers or the cylinder that holds the wafers?

I need the cylinder.

I have one. PM me your address and I'll send it out.

Mepstein sent a cylinder. Thanks, Mark!

The wafers (tumblers) are worn. Does anyone know of a source for replacements? Thanks in advance.

Dave:

I don't know a source for replacements, but I can send another cylinder if you think it would help piece enought good wafers together.

Just let me know.

Tweet/Dan used to sell new parts but he's disappeared. I searched a lot for new parts but I never found a source. The wafers from a glove box lock are usually in new condition.

Bob, thanks, that's a generous offer. But I'll let you keep that cylinder. My goal is to bring the locks back to factory fresh. So that means new blanks and hopefully new tumblers.

Mark-914rubber talked about making new wafers. I think there is a market. The 911 guys need them too.

I just got back from the picking up the Sheridan molds I'l move these to the top of the list Pretty sure we can have tooling done in about 6 weeks. Production wil lbe shortly after. I'll start up a thread as soon as I look at may drawings. I think they are mostly complete.
