A: Fullsize or XJ? Fullsize has little rubber stppers that sit in holes that the alignment pins go into. When the rubber wears out (or often, just falls out because it is stuck to the pin when you open it) the metal on metal squeak will drive you nuts! I used rubber vacuum caps on my '83 and they needed replacing once in awhile (I opened the tailgate a lot) From: "Peter Klemmensen" <pklemmensen@xxxxxxxxx> To: "amc-list" <mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Jeep Cherokee Tail Gate Question Date: Tue, 4 Jan 2005 11:53:24 -0500 Our tail gate or hatch keep's rattling when we are driving down the road, Is there any way to stop this??????
