Cherokee Tube Door Security
I was given Some tube doors for my 91 Cherokee on my birthday years ago and figured id show a small idea i had. Maybe it will help others, maybe not. In any case; Living in Las Vegas, NV i was worried about having my tube doors stolen.
Basically all i had done was taken some steel and bent it into a U shape. Ground off the paint off the tubing and put a limiting strap in the U and welded the U to the inside of the tube door near the front.
From there i basically bolted the other end of the limiting strap inside the trim below the dash.
Sorry for the sideways picture, but the general idea is there! Hope this can be useful for someone out there

Any shop that sells pre runner parts/kits. Just a basic limiting strap. They ran me 13 bucks each i believe but id rather 52 bucks than having to buy/fab up new doors
