Question:

Hi I need help getting new lock cylinders for my truck cap. I have an ARE with the T handles. It is a Gen 3 design that I need the locks for. Do you have 3 with a matching key? Thank you

Hello Tyler, thanks for reaching out. We may have what you need, but I will need more information in order to know what locks will work. Does your ARE cap use the Bolt brand locks that key to your ignition key? If so, the Replacement Lock Cylinder for BOLT Toolbox Latch # BL692918 can be used as long as your key looks like one of those in the picture I Included.

If this is not exactly what you are looking for just let me know.

Hey Tyler, did you have a chance to check if your ARE cap uses the Bolt brand locks that key to your ignition key? If you’re still looking for a solution, I’m happy to help.
