It's fun until you get a bee up your shorts and you get stung on the nads, it hurts like hell, so I've heard.
Doors off/shoes off—feels only too good...
Do you mind sharing dimensions of that handy little cart? What size tube and etc? Thank you!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 feel ok with out the doors installed, my first jeep was a 74 CJ 5 that did not have doors. The belts and seats in my JT feel a lot more secure.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?
Will do. I am actually modifying it this weekend. I will post more pics with tape measure to show what I am doing. I did not like how the rear doors fit so I bought a few more elbows to shortens the “width” distance so the rear door sets better. The rear doors have a much shorter bottom segment length. I’ll get them up this weekend.Do you mind sharing dimensions of that handy little cart? What size tube and etc? Thank you!

No problem. My other motivation is that my back ordered trail doors arrived. I need a place to store them (and praying weather is good this weekend - I can put them on). Like a kid in a candy store A top excited to see how they fit/look/work. The Mrs. is not a fan of going doorless... hoping the trail doors are a good compromise.Thank you!
If Jeep made half doors like they used too I’d be on that like white on rice...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.
When folks ask why such an 'impractical' vehicle I tell them it's safer than a motorcycle and more useful than a boat.Apparently none of you that feel “insecure” with the doors off ride motorcycles? Haha!! Even with the doors off, I’m wrapped with 5000 pounds of steel around me. I feel plenty safe with no doors, but everyone is different. When it’s my time to go, it’s my time to go.
Whats funny is some put tube doors on as tho that does anything other than add an object to go thru your rib cage.Apparently none of you that feel “insecure” with the doors off ride motorcycles?

I put tube doors on for the piece of mind when I take the kids out. I know it’s not going to help much in a crash, But when making right left Maneuvers at least I know they aren’t going to slide out.Whats funny is some put tube doors on as tho that does anything other than add an object to go thru your rib cage.
I've used the motorcycle analogy many times too. Its fair and accurate. Its a Jeep...they're basically like motos with 4 wheels.
