yes as soon as I can get he the time! I usually have alot of spare time but here latley it has been sunup to sundown. We do have a design and the jig made and hope to have or first set done soon. you can take the tube doors and put a vinyl cover over them to look like half doors. here is a pic of how they may look.
Disclaimer: Here is a pic of how our door MAY look this is a pic of Warrior tube doors and we have not used theirs in any way to make ours other than using this pic to give an idea of what ours may or may not look like.

With that said here is the pic.

Just about! But, the cops can't say you do not have doors and the only company that makes them now charges $300+ for those no doors and only make them for XJ's up to '96 we are making them for all years and we are trying to keep our price around $175!

I think it was the monitor at work. I couldn't see them! I can see them better on the home monitor. Until I zoomed in I thought you had grabbed the wrong picture. :smiley-laughing021:

I am very interested in the idea as well. I have always liked the look. And with my a/c out for the summer... It is as hot as hell here.

$175 is the discount! The ones in the pics above are $300 a set! So a four door would need over $600 for all four,but only $350+shipping for Mad Horse.:thumbsup: But I may do a Grand Opening thing were we pay shipping(but that is still up in the air so do not quote me on it)

Hey big, I was wondering if you could make custom doors as per buyer's request? I have an idea of 1/2 doors that cover the entire bottom half instead of 6" above the bottom. I would also like diamond plate over the 1/2 doors for additional protection for the occupants. When i used those tube doors on my TJ (tested a set from a friend) I had problems with damn branches and sticks pokin through the door and ripped my seat. I bought some bestop 1/2 doors with fabric covering that worked better. That's why i'm lookin for covered 1/2 doors. Do you do custom work?

It is never "Too Late" :DBut all jokes aside we are doing this for little profet so if shipping is more than we will make to do them than it would not work.

I will see what I can do about the part at the bottom but, it has to do with being able to make the bend back up for the hinges. It may not work. As for custom orders, Yes I will do custom stuff but we would have to work on the price. PM me after we get or product up for sale.;)

Would not be legal here in BC Canada. It is a bit surprising though that no half doors were ever made for the XJ --> like the yj half doors. I think they would have been popular especially in the southern states.
