The door lock uses an older Volvo key blank. I took the lock out and up to my local locksmith and he figured it out. When I got back I tried the key in the passenger side and it did not work so different keys. The lock cylinder is held together with roll pins he didnt want to take it apart for fear of it not going back together. The marking on the back of the lock cylinder did not cross reference to anything. I found Volvo door handles online they are very similar but I didnt see any with the bolt hole where the FMTV ones mount.

Mine used older Land Rover keys if I remember correctly. The locksmith tried Volvo keys per my recommendation from someone else, no luck, he then tried others and it was older Land Rover. Both doors were also keyed different from each other but he fixed it.
