This is my hang up. Easily the coolest design and it gets high praise. I just can’t talk myself into the $255 price tag.$225 dope?
The Topsy site does not mention Gladiator doors. I take it that this mount is compatible with JT doors as well?I went with the Chupacabra Mirrors on Amazon.com, and went the Topsy Products Stack, Rack, and Roll System with a Harbor Freight 2000lbs Engine stand. Can hang all four doors/or tube doors and cart them around the garage or driveway for under $290. Not the smallest form-factor, but a good solution if all the wall space in the garage is used up.
This is a good thread and there are a ton of awesome ideas, suggestions, and options. Thank you to you all for contributing!What is everyone using for mirror(s) when you take the doors off? Not really happy with the one I throw in the hinge (always moves on me).
I like the practicality of these. Your getting two features in one product. Every time I’ve had the doors off, I’ve wished I had a foot peg to use there. Is it tight enough to keep your foot from pushing the whole thing forward, thus screwing up your view with mirrors?I ended up going with the Jpeggz. Have taken multiple interstate trips 75+ and they havent moved at all.
2d Question: Did you use the 2000lb Engine stand because that was what you had or was the 1000lb stand insufficient for the doors/Topsy system?I went with the Chupacabra Mirrors on Amazon.com, and went the Topsy Products Stack, Rack, and Roll System with a Harbor Freight 2000lbs Engine stand.

Once I have tightened them down I have had zero issues with them moving at all. No vibration or any other issues. Would definitely reccomend them!.I like the practicality of these.

I don’t much care for the rectangle foot peg though. I like the Jeep star footpeg option. That would bring it to $240 a pair. So that would bring me close to the $255 cost of the CMM mirrors that I love but can’t bring myself to pay that much for. Technically, the cmm mirrors have two features also, mirrors and ball mount, but I don’t think I’d use the ball mount for anything. I’d definitely use the foot peg if it’s solid enough to not move. And if the mirrors did move from excessive wind, I could use the footpeg to push it back the other way lol.
Thanks for listening to my thought process guys. @Nuttall, if you say the foot peg is solid enough to not push the whole unit forward, I’ll probably go with these.
I ordered a pair a couple days ago. Got the Jeep star pads also. Looking forward to getting these doors off more than a couple days a month!Once I have tightened them down I have had zero issues with them moving at all. No vibration or any other issues. Would definitely reccomend them!.
I contacted fortec4x4 & they just signed off on the prototype for the gladiator JT so hopefully they will be out soonAdded the Die-Tech mirror mounts for the JK, had to cut the bracket that mounts behind door hinge bracket and weld on in different place. Work out good. Way to cold to take for a test drive.
I like to have my things over engineered. The Topsy system called for a 2000 pound stand anyway. So I bought one for a little over $100. I watched a few videos where people used only the 1000 pound stand, and although probably sufficient, it didn’t look very sturdy. I have enjoyed doing the door change-outs without any worry that my doors will tip over.2d Question: Did you use the 2000lb Engine stand because that was what you had or was the 1000lb stand insufficient for the doors/Topsy system?
