Hilux door support thingies

Postby BCH on Thu, 27 May 2021 11:23 +0000

In addition to the door hinge, there is a support which keeps the door open on a slight rise etc. I don't know what the support thingie is called, but my 07 drivers's door needs a new one. Can anyone help with a part name, where available from and if they can be changed?

My 04 door does the same, I've just got used to holding it open with my leg. Any Auto parts store should be able to look it up and order one for you.

Thanks for that.
I wonder if the existing check strap can be serviced, expanded, fixed?

They can be repaired, I just did all 4 of mine. It's very simple, you drill 2 spot welds, open them up and replace the guides. I ordered a kit from ebay that came from russia for 26 USD. I didn't take any pics of the process but I'll dig one up of the kit.
