[QUOTE="dodgerammit, post: 440832, member: 21375"] A little vague on the query. A model year would help us. ;) What are you exactly trying to do? Match as in keyed the same? If so, just buy a new set and take to a lock smith for keying to your existing key. Match as in half door style vs full door style? Technically, the full door and half door use the same cylinder. Just how they attach to the linkage is a bit different. If a later style (double sided key) I can say for sure, the only difference is the little ear/arm thingy that connects the cylinder to the linkage, iirc. Not sure about earlier stuff. ie: a full door set can be made to work with the half door lock cylinder ear swapped over. My Jeep came with full doors. I popped the cylinders out and swapped them into a set of half doors I bought before selling the full doors. I used whatever was different on the half door cylinder and swapped it to the full door cylinder so I could keep with the one key for my Jeep. Pretty sure those ears were held on by one of those pesky e clips. A general hook/pick set from harbor freight can get in the opening and pop that clip off. I'm not up on the earlier GM style that is one sided, but at worst, they probably could be made to work with some ingenuity. You can buy most of this stuff on quadratec: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.quadratec.com/vehicle/1987-1995-wrangler-yj/doors/door-replacement-parts[/URL] [/QUOTE]
