1968-1991 Tailgate Lifter Bar Channel

$140.00

The tailgate window channel (also called a lifter bar) is the piece that secures the rear glass inside the tailgate so it can move smoothly up and down. When the original channel rusts or weakens, the glass becomes loose, doesn’t close correctly, or in some cases, can even crack when closing.

This OE-style replacement channel is designed for use with both power (electric) and manual tailgate windows. It includes a corrosion-resistant coating to help it last longer than the factory version.

Why you may need this part

  • Tailgate glass rattles, feels loose, or won’t close tightly
  • Channel has rusted apart or separated from the glass
  • Difficulty operating the tailgate window
  • Glass breakage from failed or weak channel support

Recommended with this part

For the best results, replace these items at the same time:

  • Tailgate lifter bar cushion (P/N 5469605) – prevents the glass from vibrating against the channel
  • Tailgate retaining clips (P/N J0980363) – required to secure the glass; original clips are not reusable

Fits:

  • 1968–1983 Wagoneer
  • 1974–1983 Cherokee SJ (including Cherokee Chief)
  • 1984–1991 Grand Wagoneer

Additional Details

  • OE-style direct replacement
  • Correct fit for both manual and power tailgate windows
  • Protective coating added to resist corrosion and extend service life
  • Jeep has discontinued the original part – this reproduction is the correct replacement
  • Special Order Item: Please allow 5–7 business days to ship
