Freedom Panels Off & Tube Doors to Fully Enclosed in 15 minutes

[Y-Guy]

One of the favorite things about my Jeeps is removing the doors and top. Most summers I go 100+ days. I knew I'd have to put them back on but I pulled the Freedom panels and doors on Saturday, got all 4 of the new to me Rugged Ridge Fortis Tube doors installed and adjusted. No rattles! Kudos to RR for supplying me with the updated bumpers so they wouldn't rattle.

The lighter weight Jeep doors sure making going on and off a whole lot easier. Went from Freedom panels off, tube doors on to fully enclosed in 15 minutes (and I wasn't even rushing). Though I was motivated as it was starting to rain while we were at Costco.

Yeah, I changed mine out this morning and found myself wishing the factory doors were as light as the tube doors. Still, having a wall hanger system has helped tremendously.

Compared to my JKU the JT doors are pretty light. But yeah tube doors are so much easier, though the Fortis ones are pretty stout. I switched from the Home Depot brackets to the ARC offroad brackets. Works well for both the Tube & Jeep doors.

I bought those and sent them back.
Built my own setup so I could hang two doors on each. Should've gotten a pic with the OEM doors on the hangers.

@Lunentucker - nice work! I needed mine to hug close the wall so my wife can get by. The Home Depot racks would catch her every now and then.
