i took my doors off and will prolly leave em off the whole summer, but has anyone found or built some decsent lookin tube doors or half doors or anything, just something that works but i still want the advantages of havin my doors off. and ive already found the tube doors that warrior offroad makes, but cant really see myself spendin 400 on half of a door!please help me

tommy

how much experience with metal work do you have? I'll bet this is the perfect opportunity to build some sick looking tube doors and show them off. otherwise if you just want them done, id suggest just looking around online, rustys might have some but im not sure

95Forrest

well i dont have much experience at all really with metal work, but thats something i definaty would like to pick up! but i dont have the tools or know where i would buy the material down here to do it, so i mite just get someone to make them for me. cause i want something different

Here's a link to some tube doors. Doesn't help with the $ though.

At least maybe you could copy the design if you build yourself.

ya i have a 91 and im trying to design tube doors for mine too, but i want a custom design. luckily i do have the recources to do it, i just dont know what design i want yet

Is it your daily driver or just an entertainment vehicle?

mine is a daily driver.its outside rite now gettin rained in and im in school and cant do nothin bout it so ill be pullin the carpet out this weekend. but i think im gonna put my doors back on for now, im tryin to save money to get a bumper made. so one will have to wait

Sounds like the perfect opportunity to do some bed lining. One of the best things I have ever done to my jeep was pulling out the old molding carpet, fixing the rust spots then throwing down some bed liner.

yea ive definatly been tellin myself i was gonna do that oneday for a while but just havent had the time yet! but then there is still the fun of the cloth very absorbant seats, what the hell can i do to those

thats pretty sweet and looks good too!!! might have to rethink buying a tube bender and fabbing my own. looks like this can be done in just a couple of hours.

Ok, but what happens if you start twisting and going over bumps, is your body going to flex wrong and make it a pain to put the stock doors on for winter?

Also, tube doors shouldnt be that hard to fab up. I like the angle iron to the stock mounts, than just tube in the design you need. I wanna see if you could grab a couple extra lock plates ( the ones that on the closed side) and see if you could keep um closed that way. .... Got me thinking now. <-- Access to tig, mig, arc, and torch. humm

i have read that your doors will never line back up right after going door less

PNWJeep

See thats what im afraid of, fun summer time and than the snow comes and im stuck with ill-fitting stocks

But there has to be a way to fab up a custom half tube door that is strong at the correct points so that this doesnt happen. (why can't nerds drive jeeps instead of hybrids)

why put tube doors on?....so much more badass with doors off.my driver side lines up perfect,but passenger doesnt because i used differnt pins
