Freedom panel hardware (lever)

[wranglerguyman]

Does anyone know the part number for the lever screw? Or if the lever screw from the JK will fit JL? Part 68004986AA. I may or may not have accidentally broken the inner lever. Found the part number of the lever but nothing for the screw. I'm guessing they must be replaced because the JK had some sort of threadlocker on them. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Was wondering if you had the part number for the lever itself... putting the passenger side panel on today the plastic guide in the lever snapped off.. 2018 JLUR

Not sure about the screw, but the lever I can help with. This is the passenger panel. The red arrow is part number 68368567AA (or 68368567AD). The blue arrows are part number 68368568AA (or 68368568AD). Opposite numbers for the drivers side panel.

those levers seem to have a lot of flex to them. concerned of future breaking and noises as you can pull up on panel and see the lever flexing.

Yes, I'd be interested in an aluminum aftermarket solution. The passenger rear inboard lever seems to have more pressure forced against the plastic stop/guide than the others. Gotta treat them like they're made of glass.

... and just like that, one of mine broke.

I had one that is sort of broken, having it looked at next week. Seems the stopper broke off so now it can turn way past the 90º it's supposed to.

yup, exactly that. Just went ahead and ordered 2 of each part# from MoparPartsGiant.com (thank you @TheWingman) as I imagine I'll break more of these flimsy levers.

Yeah, it’s bound to happen. No problem! Thought I could save someone the headache over ordering the wrong lever (like I did...)
