Does anyone regularly use the Bestop fabric doors? I’m interested in getting them, and my use case is going to be spring/summer early morning highway cruising at about 80mph from Nashville to New Orleans 1-2x per month.

Would these be ok for that use case?

Not on the highway. They are too weak. The pressure sucks them out and is crazy noisy. I had them on my last gladiator and sold them with the truck. They are great for around town but highway was too much. I had them on my TJs and always loved them. I miss them now with my current gladiator but can’t justify the cost. Getting the tube doors and covers/uppers might be a better option. That is what I will be doing.

I concur with the previous replier: they are fine around town but are a terror on the highway.

Is this the same situation for the Bestop fabric top?
