Removable Doors
I drove from Mississippi to Tennessee today on the Natchez Trace Pkwy (highly recommend). The weather was perfect for cruising with the windows down and the sunroof open. Seeing lots of motorcycles and a couple of Jeeps on the drive, I wondered if anyone ever took their doors off for the summer? I want to look into a way of customizing the door hinges to make the doors quick release like the Humvee (HMMWV) doors. Anyone have any ideas or thoughts?

Re: Removable Doors
Never seen it. I have thought of buying an 03-05 and chopping it, Putt in a full roll cage. Maybe a bimimi top and boom. No doors. No windows.

Re: Removable Doors
You should also check your local regulations on driving on public roads without doors before investing too much time in the project. Here in Vancouver, you're only allowed to remove the doors if the vehicle was offered for sale with only tube doors (like the Jeep CJ. TJ came with removable doors, but you're still not allowed to take them off, because it came with doors from the factory). It would be cool though to stick some tube doors on there for the summer

I second that!!! More rules and regs than you can think of. Also 60 mph or 100km on 4 lane highways, 70 mph would be great but 60 mph is the limit and if they catch you at 81 mph or 150km they charge you with racing even if no one is around you. On top of that they take your lic and a big fine and also sieze your truck at least in Ontario. Do not speed if you ever come here. I set the cruise at 60 mph so i don't get tickets if i use my foot i am always alittle over 65 mph.

Re: Removable Doors
i was looking at hinges from the old school broncos. i called the shop up and they said those doors normally weigh around 80-90 lbs. im not exactly sure how much h2 doors weigh, but i think i am going to attempt this.....i expect alot of damage before any good comes out.
