I got to the door and boot locks today. The lock cylinders are all freed up and working smoothly, but it turns out someone removed the locking pawls from all three locks. Bummer!
I ground one from a bar of brass. It works but looks pretty nasty. Does anyone have a line on who still carries an old part like this? They are the small bar located perpendicularly inside the handle barrel, that the lock cylinder pushes into and out of the handle casing. When it's out, it catches in a slot in the case to lock the handle in place. Of course, when it's in, the handle turns freely.
Sorry, I'd take a picture...but I don't have a part to photo!
Thanks,
John
