Its a "B" blank and the code is 73Y2. Take this to a locksmith and they will make you a key in a snap.

I keep a CUCV and M880 key with me all the time. You just never know! Always nice to have when window shopping at the GL lot.

What is key is the same ... the ignition and/or the doors? The m1009 I just got is missing both keys. However, the steering column is unlocked.

Folks, all CUCVs were keyed alike from the factory. They used a round "B" key blank. This ran from 1984 thru 1987. Same key opened everything. Some units opted to rekey their vehicles in which it had 2 keys, the regular CUCV key for the door and the replacement ingition key. The Air Force grew weary of losing their CUCVs in multi force operations to other units and rekeyed a great deal of their trucks. Thats the CUCV key facts and they are uncontested!
