i have a 89 jeep cherokee with power locks..

so my drivers side lock doesnt work anymore when i put a key into unlock it..actually u cant even really get a key in there..and im replacing the passenger side door with one from the wreckers so i was thinking i would just replace all the locks..

i did a search and couldnt find much info on this and when i searched google i didnt really find any info on buying new locks with keys

what should i do??
 
Get some tube doors.

I lucked out at the yard and found an XJ with the keys still in it. I took both door locks but didn't have time for the hatch lock. So now I have a different key for the hatch and doors, no biggie. But anyway, they are not that hard to swap out. You can order a new set here:

Second item down is the retainer clip that holds the lock in place, and I think there is also a tiny C-clip that holds the actuator rod onto the lock. Not that much to it, but it takes patience, and sometimes a magnet to retrieve the little clips....
