I can't seem to find a complete lock and ignition kit. Anyone know where I can find a kit that includes the ignition cylinder and cylinders to all the doors? I think the rear door has the longer cylinder.

You probably won't find a complete kit. The ignition key will be different than the door keys so it doesn't really matter if you buy them separately.

I bought my set of door lock cylinders here: Chevy GMC G Van Full Size 71-95 Door Lock Key Cylinder Set 2 GM Keys - eBay

and my ignition cylinder here: Ignition Lock Cylinder ACDelco GM Original Equipment D1499A with keys - eBay

Sweet. So essentially you end up with an ignition key and separate key for the locks? I have all the locks for the doors, just no key. I wonder if there is a code on the cylinders where you can order a key? Otherwise my locksmith would by 5 times the price of all new keys like the ones you just sent haha.

Yes, the ignition key is a different key, as it would be originally.

Any locksmith can make a key. If you don't need to replace the locks. Take out a lock cylinder, all tumblers must be intact, none missing. Your locksmith can make you a key.

In my case it was best to just replace them. My locks were a mess.

The first lock cylinder was missing tumblers, so I had to pull another one, which worked. In my case it was the easiest way to go, as I needed an ignition key as well. Dodges are the same key. Which is good information just in case your vindictive Ex GF snaps and goes full Psyco... curse
