So i think i want to take my doors but they have power locks and windows. Has anybody every done this and how hard is it? thanks

 

First off do you want to romove your doors for good or just temporarly?

 

well if i can do temp i will but idk if its possible. Maybe buy non-power doors?

 

Then trace the wires back to where u have some room cut them,and buy a harness connecter then u will be able to remove them when ever .i made my own pins so i dont have to mess with the dam torx bolts

 

R u planning on running 35,s with 4.5"of lift?

 

DO NOT cut them!!!! inside of your jeep there is a plastic panel that is all the way to the left of the pedals. take that off and the wires should already thave plastics connectors. you just disconnect them and stuff the wires from the door into the hole in the door. same thing for the left side only... you guessed it, no pedals. for the rear doors, there is a piece of plastic molding that runs the length of the front doors, take that off. then take off the plsitc molding piece that covers the front seatbelts, and goes up the pillar. oh yeah, there should be little rubber boots that hold the wiring in place (on the jeep, not the doors) they are a PITA to get out, but you have to to get the wiring out. i cut them sideways/lengthwise and pulled/ pried them out with channellocks and a HUGE screwdriver. PM me if you need anymore help. BTW the doors weigh about 70-80 pounds each.

 

IF you don't mind doing the custom work, they make a electrical contact panel that sits in the door jamb that connects any electrical option you need. Most people use them on hot rods for mirrors and PDL's, whatever they can think of.

 

Gabe yes i am planing oon 4.5in lift with 35s. Already have the 35s just debating on the lift kit still. And thanks for the help everybody. I think im only taking the front doors off.

 

here is a link to some wireless door jamb connectors they are a lil pricey but i bet they will be worth it http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cc/full.aspx?Page=166

 

WOW BROTHER!!!!! 35s and only a 4.5" lift?!? Get out the sawsall and POWER tin snips.

 

exactly !!!! do not cut unplug , much easier !!

 

Well mine are cut, but that was the PO's thing. they cut them but never put a connector on. I went to radio shack and bought a 6 plug connector for 5 bucks per door. Everything works fine with it, and is easy to unplug with those rubber boots on. Those things are easy to get on and off IMO.

 

I cut alot off the front and the back. My friend has a 4in with 35s and doesnt rub. I cut mine to his specs.

 

I am aware of the connector near the pedals, t{his is a great way to get the doors off without any wire cutting} but my problem is actually disconnecting it. i cant find and way to do it. nothing i do even budges it. any help would be appreciated.

 

when i took mine off (its an 87) my rear windows would roll down so had to hook the wiring back up on the drivers door to roll them down dont know why but may save u some time
