Door locks wont work

Hello,

The door lock linkage on my truck has come off the lock cylinder so that I cant unlock the door from the outside.

I need the little nut things (not sure what its called ) that hold the linkage on.

Where can I get these? Can I get them from my local hardware store? If so what size do I need for my truck?
Thanks for the help!

You're probably talking about "rod lock clips," which can easily be had at most parts stores. They're usually sold as an assortment in the red "HELP!" blister packs.

I see what you guys are talking about but to me it seems like a push nut is what I would need to put it back together?

If you are refering to the flat arm at the end of the cylinder, it is held on by a c clip. The item we described attaches the latch rod to this flat lever arm.
