I keep mine in my office at work, figuring if the weather turns bad, more than likely, that's where I'll need them in a hurry, while at home, the Jeep's in a garage and safe from the weather.

There is a thread on this forum that mentions hanging the doors by the hinges. They mounted soemthing to the wall that they are able to slide the door hinges over so it is like the door hanging on the Jeep but they are on the hinges. Probably the only way to improve on the design is if you had a support at the latch as well.

I've heard about door carriers - take your doors off and hang them on your tailgate??? Sounds kind of weird - anyone do that and do you have pics?

Agree with something to support the other ends. As many of the posters in that thread pointed out, hanging them like that might not be such a good idea. Putting that much stress on the hinges for long periods can't be good.
