Hi,

As it happens my truck is old. 34 at this point and you can really see and feel that in the door lock cylinders. Now, buying new cylinders ain't no problem for a truck, but my truck happens to be a suburban and so far after endless scrolling, I have not found a cylinder kit for burbans. Of course I could buy a set of two and then a single one, but the problem is, I want to have a single key for the doors. What have all y'all burb people done to get by? Just live with separate keys? Get picky with a lockpicking smith, also known as a locksmith? I'm just tired of having a truck you can break into with a tine from a rake and I also only have one set of keys to the truck, so I have no backup key in case I lose the keys or lock them inside the truck.

Plz halp

Take the third lock to a locksmith and have them re key it for the key set you want!
And once that's done, they can make you some more keys! I keep a spare set to the crew cab in my pocket, and I have a spare key for the Burb when we use it. Saved my behind a few times.

Just out of curiosity ... Is your Suburban Barn Door or Endgate ?

I just bought a set for my Blazer from GMC Pauls Truck Parts in which had the doors and the Endgate and it came with the two sets of keys .. Two with GM marked and two with no markings.

I had previously purchased the Ignition Key cylinder and it will be original Square Key and Separate and the Door / Endgate will be Oval Head.

See what you can find on this page .

Well hot dog buckaroo, I do believe you just made my problem disappear! I got barn doors and that's exactly what I've been looking for. Now the only question mark is shipping costs, what is this "GMC Pauls truck parts" shop, some small company apparently?

Yes, GMCPauls is a small shop and has been used by many members on this webpage I believe and other members on other Webpages I am on such as CK5 Network. I have heard positive reviews on them.

When I got my set the keys did not appear to be cut the same, and I called them because I did not want to open the packaging in case I had to return it ... They told me to go ahead while I was on the phone with them and to verify that everything worked. If it did not, the would ship me another one and I could return the damaged set.

Fortunately, everything was perfect so a happy ending.

I checked on our USPS and found out they will mail to Finland. Look it up on the internet and it showed about 4 lbs for under $30.00 ... the set you may want is less weight than that.

If you want some help, I would consider buying the exact part and having it shipped to myself in Texas and then shipping to you in Finland.

Tell me the specific part number you want and I will see about getting you a total price.

I can do Paypal and Zelle in USD.

If your are interested... get back....

Best of Luck ...

There's a locksmith on eBay that sells exactly what you need. I had him make keyed alike ignition and door locks for my 4 squares and my OBS. 1 key fits all 5. Every lock. When I bought the last one I messaged him about keying it the same and it was no problem.
