Use the attribute startsWith selector:

$(':checkbox[name^="checkUser"]:checked').each(function(i){
    val[i] = $(this).val();
});

You can use .map instead for a shorter solution:

var val = $(':checkbox[name^="checkUser"]:checked').map(function(){
    return this.value;
}).get();

Use a CSS3 type selector like this

$('input[name=~"checkUser"]:checked').each( function(idx) {
    val[idx] = $(this).val();
});

Edit: oh, same exact answer as above :P
