Spare tire key code

My 2000 Rnager came with no spare tire lock key. I found a blank on ebay for $9 (instead of $35-65 from keysmith/dealer) Anyhow I went to the dealer to get a code and he said there isn't any. He has codes for the doors/ignition, but not rear lock.

What they do if the key is lost is take out the whole lock and get a new lock and key from Ford.

My question: Anyone know of any other ways to get code before I tear it out. And, How tough is that lock? would I be able to pound in screwdiver and break it, or drill it, or can you actually punch it through?

Appreciate any advice.

If you bought the truck new then the key is in the user manual that came with the truck or at the bottom of your glove box.

If you have lost the key a Locksmith can probably re-key the lock but he isn't going to use your blank.

Thanks for using FTE!
