hopper door key lock

[Klinger]

Hello everyone, is it possible to use the suburban door handle on my c1500. I want a key to unlock everything

(sorry for the english, google translator)

What year truck do you have? The early trucks have two keys, the later trucks have a single key. I don't know if the lock cylinders are interchangeable.

Sorry for my stupidity, I don't know how to ask properly.

I want to put this door handle in the photo on my 1995 c1500.

Thus, the same key that starts the car opens the tailgate.

It should be that way on a 95.

There must be some kind of translation problem...
A c1500 is a pickup truck: 2 doors, both with locks.
The Suburban in the picture will have 5 door handles, 3 of them have key tumblers, the passenger door and rear door/tailgate being the same part number.
The 1995 used the same key to unlock the doors as to turn the ignition tumblers.

Therefore, from the factory, your truck should have the same key. If it doesnt, someone in the last 28 years changed it.

The info given is accurate, now its your turn to find out why you disagree.


By rereading your first statement, the answer is yes and no.
Yes: you can remove the Suburban door handle assembly and install it on your passenger door.
No: the key cylinder will be different than your truck and you WILL NOT have the same key to "unlock everything".

I went back in your history and found a post.

It kinda sounded like you wanted to retrofit a lockable handle into your tailgate to be able to lock it, so it doesn't get stolen?
Sorry, the 400s don't work that way. Our tailgates don't lock by the handle like newer ones do.

What's even more unusual is your English typing, comprehension, humor, etc. back in 2018 was terrific...

Now, there are locking handles, but they'll use a seperate key. Hopefully the link can translate into Portuguese for you

Or at least try to Google search: POP-N-lock

You would have to remove the handle and base. Then remove the key tumbler, disassemble and reset the pins to the key you want to use. The reassemble .
