Overview
The Crown Automotive 55003233 is a left front fender flare retainer bracket for the 1984–1996 Jeep Cherokee (XJ). It covers the left front fender flare position only, so it is a single bracket rather than a full set.
Crown Automotive makes replacement parts for Jeep vehicles, and this bracket is one of its fender flare hardware pieces for the Cherokee XJ. Match the part number and the left front position when you compare it with a flare kit or another bracket.
Key features
- Left front position retainer for a fender flare
- Fits several trims of the 1984–1996 Jeep Cherokee (XJ)
- Direct fit for the 1984–1996 Jeep Cherokee (XJ) trims covered
- Replacement part from a manufacturer of Jeep parts
Matching flare hardware
A retainer bracket holds one point of a fender flare in place, so the position and the flare model must match. Left front brackets are used at a different mounting point than center or rear pieces, and mixing them up can leave a flare sitting unevenly. Before buying, measure the position on the vehicle and compare it with the part and the flare kit you plan to use.
Bracket condition matters as much as fit. Look for cracks, bent tabs or rust at the bolt hole, since these can let the flare rattle or pull away from the body. Clean the mounting surface before fitting and check fastener tightness after the first drives. Brackets are often replaced when a flare is changed, so compare the old one first.
- Match the position to the mount point
- Replace brackets that show cracks or rust
