So like the title says I've got a 95 that was broken in to, the criminals broke the drivers door lock. I'd like to replace the lock and have the key match the other locks, do I need to buy a certain type lock that can be re keyed?

 

You will probably have to replace both lock cylinders as a set and then take the keys to a locksmith to get them cut properly. Or, if your ignition lock cylinder has seen better days and you don't mind spending the money, you can go this route:

 

I'd wondered if it might be easier and cheaper in the long run to replace all three locks. Using the Amazon option I'd also get a nice Ford key ring as a bonus! I could also order the door clips at the same time.

 

Talk to a local locksmith first. But I suspect you'll end up replacing more than just the damaged one.

Haven't taken the panel off yet so the mangled lock might be inside the door!

 

I'm actually working on a 95 F250 XL work truck for my son in laws business. I'd set it up for him about three years ago when the business was just getting started. It had been parked because the power steering quit. Nice out Saturday so we drove it to my house. The hood latch had rusted shut, had to disassemble to raise the hood. PS cap missing. Filled it up, new cap and radiator a gallon low. Fix the locks and a few odds and ends truck will be back on the road. It's why I picked a 95 F250, thing is tough as nails and pretty simple.
