It is a dealer only part.

Take your truck down and tell them you're missing the key. Most dealers have a collection of them so they can try each and tell you which will fit.

Go to the dealership, ask to use their master set to find which key yours is. After you find which number it is, go to mcgard.com to get their customer support number, and you can order a new one for around $25.

Or if the spare is off as mine was, you can remove the winch from the truck, pull the key part out (it is just held by a spring clip) and weld a 3/8 square drive to the end of the extension arm. The back end of that lock is just a square drive.

No more key needed.

Too much work, just pry off the end clip and from then on just use the jack extension without the key. There are 16 different "keys".
