My 2009 FX4 SCAB has the front door detent, but as others have mentioned, it is at about the 1/3 open point and it does not seem solid. Once past the detent, the door really flings open and I have to be very careful with it. The other day I hit a wood shelf in the garage with it and it took a small paint chip off the door edge where it hit. I touched it up, but... I've also noticed in any kind breeze or wind, the door won't stop at the detent and you really have to grab it to keep it from flinging wide open and hitting something. My 2006 XLT wasn't like this. If anyone comes up with a solution, please post. Thanks.

Screws are the same as the Scabs for the front doors. The front door on my 09 Screw is at 1/3 while the rear doors are at the 1/2 mark.
