are the front doors different on the 2door? if not I bet that if you were to contact tomken directly they would probably be able to get you a set.

If there is someone in So Cal that will allow me to use their 2 door for measurements and fitment, they will get a set for free. I can then build a jig and produce them for sale.

just a helpful hint: ive heard the thornbirds suck big time. if i were you id look at a different tire. ive got the maxxis bighorns and they work great and they were cheap as hell on ebay. these are the only tire that ive actually used since the lift so i don't know about anything else. but alot of people ive talked to love em. just thought id tell you.
