Yep. The help section sell it as an assembly for GM but if you buy the Ford version that is just the gray plastic part. You can drive them on the striker with a socket or on the bench vise. it looks one pice but the part afanst the door fram is a big flat washer. If the nut is captive it's a 5 minute repair. If you have to chase the nut it's a 1.5 hour repair on a Suburban LOL.
With that collar missing it makes the diameter of the stiker smaller and it doesn't trip the latch the second clip. My doors are tight and no sag and I was having to slam to get them to close. No problem now. Still need to do this to one of the rear doors.. Same problem. Plastic peice got hard with age and came apart.
