Description

Overview

Crown Automotive’s fender flare retainer bracket, part number 55003237, is for the right rear fender on the 1984–1996 Jeep Cherokee XJ.

Check the bracket’s size, material, finish and quantity against the one it replaces before ordering.

Fender flare maintenance

Fender flare retainers spend their life in a harsh spot, exposed to road spray, grit and vibration. Over time the mounting points can crack, rust or lose their grip, and the flare starts to move. Regular checks catch these problems while the fix is still a simple fastener or bracket swap.

Inspection is quick. Look at each retainer while the wheels are off or during an oil change, check for cracks around the mounting holes, and gently press the flare to feel for movement. Clean rust off the body contact points before refitting, and use fresh fasteners where the old ones are stretched or corroded.

Questions & Answers

Is this bracket for the right rear fender?

Yes. It is the right rear fender flare retainer bracket with part number 55003237, and it covers no other position.

Does this bracket fit a 1985 Cherokee XJ?

The fit list covers the 1984 to 1996 Jeep Cherokee XJ, so a 1985 XJ is included. A 1984 or 1996 XJ falls inside the same range. Confirm your vehicle's year, model and trim before ordering.

Does the bracket come with mounting hardware?

Hardware is not part of this bracket, so plan to use your existing flare mounting kit. Confirm the bracket's position against your fender before fitting.

How often should flare brackets be inspected?

Check them at each tire rotation or oil change, since the wheels are often off or the flare is easy to see then. Look for loose fasteners, cracks and rust at the mounting points, and tighten or replace as needed.

Can a worn retainer cause flare rattle?

Yes. A worn or loose retainer lets the flare move against the body, which causes rattling on rough roads. Tightening the fasteners often helps, but a cracked bracket should be replaced rather than tightened.
