wood block in driver's door?

[87MJJeep]

Both of my doors have had repairs. Remnants of original rivets were found in the passenger door, and the lock solenoid has had work in the driver side door. What is odd is that I realized the yellow-brown thing in the door was a piece of wood. It was not a smooth cut. It was approximately 1.5-1.75 inches wide, 5-6 inches long, and ranged from 0.5 to .75 inch in height. It was glued to the bottom of the door (on the bottom horizontal part of the door), and it was close to being centered.

 

Does anyone know why that would have been needed? I took it out since it can hold moisture.

I'm gonna guess someone put them there to keep the coil things for the window regulator from sitting on the bottom and rotting out again.

Is that a power window part, or either type? I've got crank windows. I saw nothing near the board.

Either type

Either type

 

I'll take a closer look. I didn't notice anything in there that appeared to rest on the bottom.

my take is either a piece of wood to restrain the window from going down all the way

or it was left there during a repair......

I'll roll it down and carefully watch and see if any gets near where that block was. Thanks for the help!
