Securing your MTVR? anyone installing locks? ignition keys?

[MTVR]

I don't know if I have a record of the part number, but I looked it up again. I'm finding Velvac part number 600169-1 and 600169-6.

Any brand of aluminum 4" non-vented female 8 thread per inch locking fuel cap will work. The numbers I gave above, may cross over to other brands if you do a little digging...

Okay, I've got a Pierce dealer parts department employee working on the locking door handles. I'll give an update when that information becomes available...

Did you ever get these pierce part numbers?

The door handle with lock is available, just not cheap at over $100 each. Here is a link https://www.ebay.com/itm/Oshkosh-31...050096?hash=item41d76bf270:g:IRoAAOSwcj1aQ655

The striker plate is available too. https://mpparts.com/part/oshkosh-3192882-cab-door-striker-3192882

I am buying the air brake knob lock too. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B..._title_srh_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

I bought better door handles for my FMTV from Austinhardware.com. there's tons of door handles on there probably the same one that the MTVR uses is commercially available for less than half the price. They come with locks and keys also

Well give us a picture of em ! I have run slap the hell out of something to do so give me a mission ! Who mfg the cab it should be on something maybe in the door facing they usually dont get out of their comfort zone unless someone request a certain part they dont normally use!

 

[serpico760]

I've contacted the account manager of a commercial supplier of automotive door handles with photos of the handle to see if they can figure it out. If so they should be about half the price that the guy on eBay was selling them for. They helped me with handles for my M1083. I'll let you know if they reply with a match.

Well by golly...

Here are some pictures!



Don't know that anybody needs the inside latch picture, but somebody may know more with how this thing is configured with those two pics. AND there is a place for a lock - if you knew what kind of lock you (we) would need.

I'm pretty sure the inside latch is a TriMark and the outside latch probably is too.

If you search online for TriMark 030-1400 or 030-1450, they look extremely similar.

030-1450 Two-Point Paddle Handle | TriMark Corporation

This flush mounted paddle is a redesign of our 030-0450 paddle handle for compartment doors and entrance doors on recreational and specialty vehicles. Containing the same proven mechanical details as previous with a modernized look, it can be used in FMVSS 206 (ECE R11) applications, is power...

www.trimarkcorp.com

if you go to the product page there's the technical specifications with the cutout size and the linkage points etc. I'm pretty sure this one will work so long as it fits in the same hole it also mounts in an upright configuration like the MTVR handle.
On Amazon and eBay the same handle is also available in all black which of course then you can paint to whatever you like. And with keys. If you buy it from Austin hardware after confirming that it works they can send you a left and right set with matching keys.

Agreed that they look similar.
The link you sent was for a "two point" and the one on the truck is a "one point".

The link looks a lot like the LMTV handle.

Might be that I could spend the time to remove one and get more details.
Maybe a casting number or something similar...

Yeah they often have more points than needed you use the ones you need and just leave blank or cut off the ones you don't.
