New to this particular forum, not new to Fords in any way. I just picked up a 91 ranger 4.0 extended cab (76,000 original) 4x4 for dirt cheap. At some point the passenger side lock was punched and broken into, I thought no big deal just needs new lock cylinders. But I cannot find the cylinders for this particular year ranger listed anywhere?
Are they the same as first Gen rangers, or will an explorer or full size truck set work?

 

LMC shows them, part 23

The door lock with keys is listed as 83-89. The problem I'm finding is that I don't know if they're the same internal mechanism as the first Gen ranger? The outside bits all look the same

 

Sorry, I didn't look close enough.

 

Check out some of the Ford Obsolete Parts Houses to see if the Lock/Keys Sets are the same.

I went to Tasca Ford Parts and the Door Shell and the outer skin on both the 89 and the 91 are the same.

In fact I think the break over is '88 for the front end change but the cab looks the same. I don't think Ford changed anything in the cab itself until '93 or '94 !

Do some digging and see wht you can find about part number changes, IF the number are the same then you are ok to go.
