Also to build off of that, the laws only apply to the legally designated public roads. If you're off on a trail or something, you can almost do whatever you want.

yeah, it just kinda folds like a taco everytime I try it. This xj I just welded the doors shut to add more strength. This one is close to taco but not quite there yet.
Doors aren't a structural part of a Cherokee. How could they be?
