Not sure where this "it'll fold like a taco" set of mind is coming from, but you DO NOT have to have frame stiffeners or any of that other crap to go doorless. That's just some heresay bull ****. The doors ARE beneficial to the integrity of your jeep, but no where near enough to effect the rigidity of your unibody should you take them off. PLENTY of people on here running on 35s or more doorless with no frame stiffeners or tube doors .. with no issues whatsoever.

So xj-manic you are right it won't fold like a taco ! But of you wheel hard core you will crack ur unibody and say bye bye to the jeep

The unibody strength is designed around the unibody itself. Not bolt on parts like doors or hatch.
Doors will not stop unibody cracking.

They are defintely strongly recommended if you hardcore wheel period. With or without doors.
