Frequently asked questions

What does the Door Check Strap Assembly do?
The Door Check Strap Assembly limits how far the side-hinged tailgate opens and holds it at its open position. It stops the tailboard swinging too far and straining the hinges. It's fitted to the lower side-hinged tailgate, known as the tailboard.
How many Door Check Straps are needed?
You typically need one Door Check Strap Assembly per side-hinged tailboard. It's usually replaced when the strap has frayed, stretched or snapped and the tailgate no longer holds open. Check the mounting points on the body and tailboard while fitting the new strap.
Which Defenders does this Door Check Strap fit?
This Door Check Strap Assembly fits the Land Rover Defender up to 2016, on the lower side-hinged tailboard. The later application runs from VIN 7A000001, so use your VIN to confirm. It suits the side-hinged tailboard rather than a top-hinged tailgate.
