Well, I lost a keyring that had a ton of little keys on it (camper, truck tool box, etc.)

Fortunately, my truck tool box was open, so I can still use it...but I can't lock it. I don't know the manufacturer and I purchased the box from someone off of Craigslist. Are there any universal locks for these? It's a flap handle with a keyed lock.

Any idea what I can do? Drill in a padlock?

Since you can open it, you can remove the lock and take it to a locksmith and he can either cut a new key from the tumblers or rekey. I helped a coworker break into his own toolbox because he lost his keys and a locksmith ended up selling him a new lockset for cheap that fit in the handles.

Oh great! I had no idea they could cut a key just from a lock!

Thanks!!

Of it's a cam style lock try one of these (no keys to lose)
