I cannot believe how simple it was to install the repair plate. Its such an easy install and it actually fixed my door. I will be buying the other side now along with another set for my other XJ. GREAT PRODUCT AND ITS MADE IN THE U.S.A.!

Chris and CS Works you are a genius and lifesaver. My door pins have been sagging and two days before I planned on fixing they caused my door to get ripped bad by latch. I searched google on how to repair ideas and found this product. It installed in under 20 min hardest part was pulling it close enough for stock bolts to catch but I got it. I’m going to unscrew one at a time and add a little thread lock to stock bolts just to be safe. Wow my xj door never opened and closed so smooth. I am sharing my experience with a jeep group I belong to. Thanks Chris.

This installation was easy enough. All you need to do is remove the 3 screws holding the latch mechanism to the door, and screw this plate on. Works flawlessly and now I don’t need to replace my entire door

This is amazing. Works great and does what I needed it to do. Its light and fits perfect on my 99 XJ. All the bolts and hardware lined up perfect. Will be buying for my other jeeps

Chris… I don’t know ya, but I love ya. lol This saved me from having to buy a new door or have this one repaired at the shop. Took less than 5 minutes to install. Very pleased with this purchase. Sorry, no before picture but it was bad.

My 99 XJs door was torn up, which wouldn’t hold the 3 torq bolts connected to the lock, which in return didn’t allow my door to close and I had to literally tie it closed. Bought this, fits great, works great. No complaints.

This product is awesome if u take off ur doors and aren’t using the stock pins. My doors were all chewed up. This saves me from a tetanus shot!! 😆

I’ve used these on four or five different XJs and ZJs as a preservation tool to keep the latches as intact as possible. Can’t say enough good things about them! Fit is spot on and they’re great either as a preventive measure or as a repair for a latch that’s eating itself. 10/10
