Default Door Hinge Problem

I have an '89 limited and my driver door squeaks when it opens and closes. I had to take that roller pin or whatever it's called (keeps the door half way open or all the way open) because it broke and bent it's mounting point on the door so that is no longer there. The door squeaks unbearably. Help

Take A trip to your local junk yard and get the bracket and pin from the rear door of another Cherokee. The bracket is the same for all 4 doors and since the rear doors don't get used as much most of them are like new. I have done this with all of my Cherokees and it works great. No more squeaks or pops.

So just getting grease in the hinges won't be enough?

cut the pins and make the doors removable.
