Frequently asked questions

What is the Rear Door Check Bracket (RRC8517)?
The Rear Door Check Bracket (RRC8517) anchors the rear door checker, or door stay, to the body on the Land Rover Defender. It gives the fixed point the torsion-bar check arm acts against, holding the rear door at its open detents and limiting how far the door can swing.
Has the RRC8517 door check bracket been replaced by a newer part?
Yes, RRC8517 has been superseded by part number LR016768, the current Land Rover replacement for the rear door check bracket. It fits the same rear door check mechanism. If you're working from an older parts list, order the current supersession to be sure of availability.
Which Defenders does this rear door check bracket fit?
This bracket fits the rear door check mechanism on the Defender from 1987 to 2016, including 90 and 110 Hard Top and Station Wagon 3 and 5 door models, with later builds from VIN 7A000001. It's for the torsion-bar type checker, so confirm your rear door uses that mechanism.
Can the rear door check bracket be fitted at home?
Fitting the rear door check bracket is usually a straightforward DIY job with basic hand tools. It bolts to the body at the rear door and the door checker attaches to it. Access can be tight, so it typically helps to have the door supported while you work.
