Jeep door checks - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I purchased a set of the rear door checks for a Jeep. I thought I read they had a couple of stops on them. I had pictured the stops as looking either like a notch or a bump on the arem, but I don't see either. Have any of you bought these and have experience with them?

check out that...there's one response that mentions indents that hold the door open

I have put the jeep door checks on two trucks. I did not find 2 notches
noticeable also. I thought they did not open as far. That should help keep it from creasing the door. Yes, used ones are much cheaper. Just my thoughts.

Do any of you have a pic or two showing the indent or actual part that holds the door open? Maybe I got the wrong ones.

yeah, that link is found in a post at link i posted...he used the front door checks, but i wonder what it looks like with the door open using the rear ones...aren't they supposed to open wider?

These are the ones I have.. They seem to have the stops also but no humps.

**slepysal** · 01-29-2010, 08:02 PM

same ones I put on my step side I think the REAR ones have two stops. I was going to buy them from pic and pull, but they were asking 16.00 ea!! I will go back and get some monster garage style: FREE

Its the rear doorstops they are referenced too, `84 to 2001 mid size cherokees

Alright I cant seem to find door checks at Kragen's or autozone's web site. They not carry them or do they have a special name?

They`re plentiful in the wrecking yards....or someone parting out a cherokee on craigslist

**Chevy Fleetside** · 01-30-2010, 11:55 AM

They would be a dealer item anyway.

ol Curt · 01-30-2010, 07:10 PM

I found mine online at a decent price. They look just like the ones Chevy Fleetside posted, so maybe they'll work!
