JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

The only problem with a setup like this is long term storage. Like if you built a rack like this for your garage. The reason is that over time, the door will warp as the center is heavy. I had a small issue like this when I just bungee'd the top of my two doors to my stand up door rack I made. Door wouldn't close as well for a little while. Now I just leave the bungee loose at the top, but something to think about.

I really like this setup but like the he said, it's not recommended for off road use...has anyone made a vertical stand set up that they can secure them in the rear of the Jeep? I wonder if you could lean them against the roll bars and secure them with straps I would love to be able to run most of our summer road trip with the front doors removed but I need to have them with for bad weather.

I've just gotta say, that if I had a 2 door, I still couldn't make myself do this with a full steel door, that costs $1000+ for an empty hull that you add your existing hardware to...LOL. Its nice to have doors for emergencies, anyway. Anyway, I'm 4 door, so it's not an option anyway. I'm going to be buying 4 full soft 2 piece doors for carrying with me. Since they come apart into 2 pieces, they can be stacked in back.
