Ignition switch trouble

[87GMC_stepside]

Hello all I'm new to the site and have been restoring a 87 gmc stepside now for 7 years. However about 4 years ago now I had a bad house fire and lost everthing I had along with the house I grew up in. This brings me to my question for you all my keys were in my kitchen when the house burned down and I was never able to find them. I want to replace then ignition tumbler and from what I've been told you need the key to remove it. If anyone can tell me how I can go about doing this without the key it would be greatly appreciated as I have resumed working on my truck now that I have a garage again. Thank you in advance everybody.
