what's the official name for the door stop thingie?


Recommended Posts

and are they still available new?  the MJ I'm helping with needs both replaced.  :(  I mean, I assume they are available new.  I keep trying to get junkyard ones and keep finding them with cracks already forming.  :fistshake2:

thanks guys! :D  sorry for the misplaced circle.  technically I'm looking for the door check itself. :L: 

 

so amazon reviews of the cheap ones include a lot of "had to mod to get it to fit" and "broke within a year".  :(  the mopar ones on quadratec are 100 a pop.  ouch.

I guess I should go with the middle with a Crown?

this isn't something that's shared with XJ rear doors, is it?  I haven't been checking them in the 'yards.

I believe I found a Mopar one for considerably less than that one but I'm not sure where anymore.  I did a cursory look through my receipts but don't have time at the moment to look further.  I'll see if I can find it later.

They are cross compatible for 97+. I put a set out of a 98 2dr xj in mine after it broke into 4 separate pieces and wouldn’t allow my door to close. Not 100% on the xj rear door thing tho as mine were out of a 2dr

The rears from a Cherokee will bolt on, but won't work the same. Your door won't open as far, as the arm is shorter than a front door one. The springs broke on mine, so I bought some rear ones at the JY thinking they'd have less wear; I ended up swapping arms to end up with a proper good set.
