Please help I locked my keys in my 92 ext cab! I've tried pulling the handle, pushing the window crank, what else can I do to get in?

Borrow a screw driver and pry the back window out from a corner. Scarily easy to do. You will need a second set of hands and some thin rope to help you put it back in, but it's not hard either.

Scratch that, free and less work on your part. Call your local fire station, they have the tools and skill, just make sure they know they have to lift the lock not to just pull the handle or they'll end up busting it if they try.

One time I got in with a slim jim quickly fashioned from a piece of metal pallet strap. Another time I couldn't pull it off, and had to call AAA.

Slide your slim jim, or bent hanger, in between the outside of the door glass, and weather stripping, near the lock button. Gently rummage around, trying to pull the lock button from inside the door.

Good luck.

Wire coat hanger bent into a deep narrow v slid between the glass and window edging and pulled up under the door lock will do the trick. Might take 3 minutes. It has to be like 3-4 inches deep to come up under the window on the door lock pin side

Get a friend with AAA to call them for you. I did this once for a teammate after a softball game. AAA responder didn't ask if it was my truck or not, they get paid for successful completion of the job.

Not a problem. As you can tell I've had to do it a few times, and its way easier than pulling the rear window
