Anyone got extra 4th gen parts laying around? I need another drivers side door check

Ok so I had a little off road accident a few years back. This was totally dumb to do, and I know it. Well...now. Had my door open as I was reversing back about a foot....open door vs. solid object....object won. The damage was done, including a ripple in the door from where the hinges are attached on top and a hyper extended door check. Well yesterday, I was playing on some 3 foot solid snow berms and when I got out I missed grabbing the door and it opened hard totally snapping the replaced door check. So now when I open the door, it can just swing all the way open. Before I go back and buy a new door check again, I was hoping to find maybe someone that has the hook up for parts.....used or new. This is what I was doing:

Yeah I've got some awesome snow that I get to play in daily. Snow that makes my lifted SUV look like a matchbox toy. It's been a hard winter up here. Talk about breaking trail....best morning was when we had a 3 foot dump over night and I had to push snow to get out of the neighborhood. I love this picture...Ruffian's smirking. "This all you got? I can dig through snow to my hood all day long!"

Off topic but lose the diff drop and throw some skids back on there!

I ran a diff drop for a short time and after realizing it did not do anything took it off. With our trucks it is really not needed.
 
Gah... makes me wanna grab my snowboard and hit the slopes again. How fresh is the snow in Tahoe these days?

From what I'm told, it's great...something like over 300" at the summits. I don't do waxed boards and snow. I just 4 wheel in it every damn day there for a while just to get to work. I got some snowshoes but then found that I wasn't really embracing the faceplant idea. So I just put Yak-Traks on my boots and go trail running with those. I like snow...but I don't love it and it's been a banner year for my first winter living at an elevation higher than 6000 feet. I've got snow to just below my 2nd story of the house! About 18 feet.

I have a lot of work to do. I have a reinforced diff bracket/brace (Kurt Fab) that I've had for almost a year now that needs to go on there. My stock skids are warped from rock sliding & won't go back on and I just don't have the funds living up in Tahoe to complete any sort of fab work for custom fabbed skids and sliders. I'm kinda stuck in my off road mods. And then I break chit like door checks.... :ybrick::dammit:
