I'm truly curious, so I hope you do it. You might not have to buy any parts or pins, but most people would. It also sounds like you've got a nice workshop set up, but keep in mind what the average person has. ;)

Have at it and let us all know how it works out and if the time spent was worth saving $70 minus the cost of the pins and any other parts you use. On a related note, I found the designer's contact info and just emailed him, got a response in about 5 minutes... the brackets are indeed 304SS...

Drilling out to 5/16" for the bushing is a very minimal increase as the bushing is very thin and it even says you may not need to drill for it's install, but most people say it makes it easier. Not sure what the difference in hole size is between the top and bottom yet. I'm not saying by any...

Someone a few posts back said the upper and lower holes are different sizes on the stock bracket and they welded a washer onto it to make them the same size. Not sure how much material there is to drill out the stock arm to match if you instead drilled the bracket out. I'm going to try to get...

They look like raw stainless to me. There's a good coat of paint already as an insulator, and you could even just put a layer or two of electrical tape on the backside before bolting them down to add more isolation if desired.

Thanks for the tips on the bushings! Some insulated wire was also a thought on creating a "soft" ring for them. And I definitely appreciated the Delrin hinge pin extensions I put on awhile back when I swapped to my half doors last week!

My bracket kit just showed up (thanks FedEx and your constant delays!) and I feel even better about buying this kit now as it seems like a much better and more well thought out solution than trying to rig up a DIY pin. There is a bushing included that gets pressed into the check arm to keep it...

Looks great! Mine should be here Wednesday and I'll probably just hit the brackets with some black paint. I'm officially declaring it half-door season here now so I don't expect to need to swap my full doors back on for awhile, giving me plenty of time.

I'll also add, there's a bunch of knock off sets being sold a few dollars cheaper now on ebay but the one I linked is the original guy that released these and he's been responsive to a few minor updates that were made since they first came out.

A number of people on the JL forum have and I have a set on the way now that the weather is cooling down enough to start swapping doors.

Well, this is Jeep we're talking about... They're not exactly known for accuracy in marketing materials. I'd be very surprised to see the hinge bolts gone.

Pretty sure they did nothing on the door hinge bolts. If you watch the video closely at 1:57 they even show the bolts still in place when the door is removed and then again when reinstalled. Those are a remove once and never touch them again thing though for 99% of people who actually take their...

A quick disconnect retrofit has been available for awhile now from the aftermarket. I do generally prefer OEM whenever possible, but I have a feeling the cost is going to be 3-4 times more for this at minimum and you'll probably have to replace the entire check arm assembly in the door unless we...

Installed the module in my 4xe this evening and I'm getting some strange behavior. The one-touch up/down work fine from the center stack controls, but the lock/unlock buttons, remote or passive entry button don't seem to be working right. Making this even stranger, if I have the all the windows...
