Default Xj rear air deflector

I’m new to this forum so I’m sorry if this isn’t the right place to post this, but I’m looking for a rear air deflector for my Jeep. I have a 1990 Jeep Wagoneer limited (XJ size Wagoneer) that I built. When it was new it had one of the goofy deflectors on the hatch. I’m looking for one for no other reason than I think they look cool haha. It’s got the holes and grommets already in the hatch. If anyone has one or can point me in the right direction, I’d appreciate it. I’ll attach a pic of one and some of my jeep. Thanks!

I have never actually seen one of these in real life. Only in pictures.

That is going to be kind of a tough find.
I am trying to locate one for somebody but nothing has popped up yet.
Just so you know a '97 and up one is different and you don't want one of those.

Haha, Ralph is looking for one for me as well right now. I have other things that are higher on the priority list though so if I'm the person who gets first dibs I volunteer that first dibs to this guy since I think it would look much cooler on his XJ anyway. As payment though I want more photos and details on your XJ XD.


I also recommend doing this the proper way and making a request on Ralph's thread. It is much easier for him to keep track of a part that he is looking for when it is in one place. https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f2/if-...-parts-259817/

Junkyard only. that's where I found one.
We installed tons of them at the dealership. They do a nice job of keeping dust off the rear window.

I wish you would've kept one for me

I really appreciate that haha, and okay I’ll throw this over into that thread. My Wagoneer is actually V8 swapped with a Ford 302 and c4 transmission. I have an adapter to run the factory NP231 transfer case so it’s still 4wd. My dad bought the Jeep in the early 2000’s for $900. It died in like 2010 but after sitting I took it on as a restoration turned “I’ve got the parts, why not” build. It’s got a small lift, still has the factory dana front and rear axles (locker in the rear now though). 31x10.5x15 tires, cb radio, plenty of lighting, and some other little stuff. It’s a fun rig to just cruise in. I usually go to the local state park and drive the service roads.

Here’s a bit of off-roading in it at the local state park. Accidentally drove a horse trail haha.
