You will never want to put them on again...

Haven't had the chance, yet. Gladiator not built yet.

I was wondering, though. Seems like a lot of folks who take the doors off regularly get tube doors.

Do you have them, and if not, do you feel safe driving around with just the seat belt on?

We have a 6 year old daughter and my wifes Toyota 4runner back seat belt failed due to juice being spilled in the latching mechanism. (fixed with 91% alcohol and wd40).

We choose Rough Country Fortis tubes.. they are built like a tank.
Without tube at highway speeds my wife holds on for life. with tubes she's relaxed, my daughter loves the ride with and without tubes. she's a bit of a daredevil .

A google search for falling out of Jeep .. most the incidents were drunk and all not wearing a seatbelt. I would say it's safe as long as the seatbelts are functioning...

So true. I walk past my doors and look at them with disgust. Like I paid for these things that I hate. I really wish the Jeep had had an option for soft doors only or some kind of hybrid like bestop core doors.

Got any more info on that door cart? Like how slim it is to sit out of the way.

Yes, I like that storage option. Please share the data!

Its 24 inches with the mirrors folded back
Toplifter store-a-door...

it's a bit pricey and if I had the time could engineer something as nice and secure.. The way I see it, if I make something that collapse i'll be paying a lot more to repair the door.

The store-a-door is well designed and the doors are securely stowed .

That is a nice looking Jeep!

I am starting to look for Tube Doors too. My wife had the same reaction this weekend to having the doors off for the first time.

I like mine!

These are the doors I think I'll be ordering this week. Looks great!

Will match my sill guards too.

Those are the OEM saddle leather seats? Do the photos reflect the true color/shade? (Can't rely on the appearance on the Jeep Build & price site)

I feel 100% safe riding without tube doors in mine.

Finally got the doors off this weekend, and put them back on each night to protect from potential rodents, bugs, and rain. Today I ordered a cab cover and this week I'm going to build one of those PVC pipe carts
