Description
Aluminum Rear Hatch Panel. The Turtle Laboratories Aluminum Rear Hatch Panel offers a durable replacement for the factory rear hatch panel, enhancing both strength and style for Jeep Cherokee XJ owners. This panel covers the majority of the rear hatch and mounts directly to factory holes. It is designed for those who need to replace missing or damaged factory parts with a more robust solution built for off-road use.
Construction and Appearance. Made from durable aluminum, the panel is available in raw metal or finished with powder coat options including flat black, gloss black, and custom colors. The manufacturing process includes prep work to remove burrs for a clean, precise product.
Installation. Installation involves removing the factory hatch pull handle and factory panel, then mounting the replacement panel with the supplied panel clips and fasteners. While no drilling is explicitly required, the use of rivnuts is recommended for a more secure installation; however, rivnuts may alter factory holes and prevent returning to factory panels.
Application. This aluminum rear hatch panel fits 1997-2001 4-door Jeep Cherokee XJ models and is intended solely for off-road use.
