Overview
The Crown Automotive Soft Top Door Seal, part number J5458874, is the passenger side upper seal for a full door on factory soft tops. It screws to the side of the windshield frame and is made for the factory soft top hardware on Jeep CJ5, CJ7 and Scrambler models.
This seal is a passenger side part, so a driver side seal is a separate item.
Key features
- Passenger side seal for the upper location of a full door
- Designed for factory soft top hardware
- Screws to the side of the windshield frame
- Replacement seal for listed CJ5, CJ7 and Scrambler soft tops
Frame and seal condition
A door seal does its job at the joint between the soft top and the windshield frame, where wind and water try to get in. Before fitting, check the frame side for rust, bent edges and old sealant so the new seal sits flat. A flattened or bent frame edge will leave a gap no matter how good the seal is.
Older CJ soft tops rely on the seal to keep the upper door area tight at speed. Rubber and vinyl seal material stiffens and cracks with age, especially where it is exposed to sun. When the seal is replaced, inspect the matching driver side seal too, since it sees the same weather.
- Clean the frame edge and remove old sealant before mounting
- Test-fit the seal before tightening the screws
- Check the upper door frame for corrosion while the top is off
