Mud is not my thing ... I do wheel rocks. And I might add, I wheel them very well with doors on. If it's easier with the doors off, it's more challenging with my doors on. I relish a challenge. You can continue to take the easy way out.

ummm ... I don't think so buddy. Not even a tiny bit. The word Ugly comes to mind. Life is too short to drive an ugly shortbus. Sorry.

Emptypockets - you speak truth my man. Anyway, I kinda dropped out of the forum for a few days & the testosterone has taken over the thread - as expected. I can barely pick up my 33s as it is - hauling doors on & off just would not be worth the trouble for me.
Out.

Any of you guys experience front door misalignment or sag when putting them back on? I think i saw one person say he did a few pages back. Thanks.

Yeah because this is the deciding factor for me too..I would just be taking them off occasionally so I don't want saggy doors!

I cut mine & a buddies '91. Both of which sagged after, but nothing that realigning the door hinges couldn't fix.

Thanks for the input, i'll probably end up doing it with the quick pin. What're you guys using for mirrors? I'm thinking a mirror off of a CJ or something.
