FQRANBO Ignition Switch & Door Lock Cylinder Kit for Dodge Ram/Dakota/Viper 1997-2002 — Two Key Sets, Direct OE Fit

FQRANBO ignition switch lock cylinder kit replaces worn or damaged ignition and door lock cylinders for select Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler vehicles so you can restore secure starting and door locking with two keyed sets.

This complete replacement kit pairs an ignition switch lock cylinder with door lock cylinders and two separate keys for each function. It fits a range of late 1990s to early 2000s Dodge models, Viper, Durango, Dakota and certain Jeep Grand Cherokee years, and matches common OEM part numbers so installation uses existing linkage and housings. The components are designed to restore key-controlled starts and door access while improving mechanical integrity compared with worn factory parts.
