Jeep Right Rear Door

A replacement door shell for a Wrangler JL or JK typically costs R8,500-R15,000 for the bare shell, with complete assemblies (including hinges, latch, and trim) running R18,000-R28,000. Labour adds another R3,500-R6,000 depending on whether you need paint matching and full component transfer from the old door.

Yes, door skins (outer panels) are available separately for models like the Grand Cherokee WK2 and Cherokee KL, costing R4,500-R9,000 plus paint. However, this requires professional panel beating and welding, so many owners opt for complete door replacement when hinges or internal structures are also damaged.

Window regulator motors and associated wiring commonly fail in Grand Cherokee WK2 models, especially those operating in dusty highveld conditions around Pretoria. Replacement regulators cost R2,800-R4,500, and door module failures (which control the window motor) add another R3,200-R5,800 for genuine Mopar parts.

A complete assembly includes the outer door shell, inner structural panel, hinges, latch mechanism, check strap (door stay), window glass and regulator, exterior handle, lock cylinder, weatherstripping, interior trim panel, and on models like the Wrangler JL, side-impact beams and speaker mounts. Power-equipped doors also include window motors, central locking actuators, and wiring harnesses.

No, Wrangler JK (2007-2018) and JL (2018+) doors are not interchangeable due to different body dimensions, hinge mounting points, and electrical connectors. The JL features redesigned aluminum doors on some models, while JK doors are steel construction throughout.
