2002 driver side door lock failed.

[Mopar1973Man]

2002 I finally had a driver side door lock fail me. I pull all the locks (passenger and driver) then the ignition lock and took them to George's Lock and Key in Lewiston ID and had them gone through. I've got the locks back in the truck and the linkage in the door was getting stiff from all the years. I power washed the inside of the doors and the latch assemble and lubed it up really well with silicone spray. Now I'm just waiting for a bit of extra funds I'm going to buy a new set of speakers for the front doors and a bag of door panel fasteners. Reassemble for the last time. I've pulled the panels off for window motor (passenger side), then added towing mirrors (Both sides came off), now the door lock issue with both sides off. I just want to put it back together for good. Still fun to drive but not comfortable resting you arm on hot sheet metal. 

 

As for the lock on the driver side somehow one of the wafers in the driver side lock got bent. It bent the holder just enough that even a new wafer didn't work so it was omitted from the drivers side lock and now it functions just fine. 

 

I've got a new fuel tank sender entire unit from DAP. I've got to find some time to pull the tank and install the new sender. I know its not fun but not hard either. 

 

I started gather up the filters for both trucks and getting a bit of free time to change fluids in both.
