drase Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Will tailgate screws for a Jeep Cherokee fit our Commanche? I called Team Cherokee and they did not really know. They said they did not think so, but were not really sure. http://www.teamcherokee.com/Tailgate_an ... index.html Tailgate Hinge Screw Set OEM Cherokee 1984-1999. Does anyone know of place I can buy 2 tailgate screws? I stripped them getting them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJRemi Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Please clarify exactly which screws you are asking about and PLEASE don't spell Comanche with two Ms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Button head screws should work just fine. Match thread. Most Truevalue type stores or Fastenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Pinellas- ... 1895552444 Or Tri-City Nut and Bolt. You guys need to find a store like Pinellas Fastener............If it's threaded and they don't have it it does not exist. One of the things I miss about back home. Orlando will have a similar shop. Look around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drase Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 The torx T-40 screws that are on the bottom of the tailgate (facing down when tailgate is up) and the screw on the bottom on the side. Once again, does anyone know if Cherokee tailgate screws will fit the CoManche tailgate? The aftermarket ones at Lowes look bad and was wondering if anyone had 2 MJ ones or know where any are? Thanx for the responses so far. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Try it. Who knows? The world is your onion. I was pointing out you can have any 'look' you want. Torx, cap screw, button head, ........stainless.....whatever. Lowes is useless. I give up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave92cherokee Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Maybe since you lack the ability to properly describe where the screws are and what they're used for you should get a pic and post it. And I doubt that the xj screws would work as xj's don't have tailgates they have a rear hatch that's held on with two hinges in the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
