doors
What I have are 2" tube. I am talking with another company that does work with us that does mandral bending. I am tryiing to have them bend the door for me in 6063 T4. Then i will bring them back to my plant and heat treat them. Then a sister company of ours has a powder coating line I am going to try to get them powder coated in dark green to match my jeep. All in all cost me maybe 20 bucks if that, I think i am going to get away totaly free. I havent started yet. I have had the tube ran and am still looking at a few things. i am looking at the warrier doors alot. I like them. I am also working on a light bar the same way. I have access to anything and everything lol.

that bumper is for a TJ. How they got it to work on the JK I don' t know. It's Smittybilt's rock crawler/pre runner tubular bumper in textered black for the TJ.
Don't get it because I don't know how they got it to fit the JK -- probably some cutting and drilling.
Glad to know you plan on upgrading your JK. Let me give you some advice: Don't be afraid to ask any question before purchasing on here, make sure you do your research so you don't spend your money for nothing, and know that it's your jeep and your money and you can do whatever you want with it.
Take care!

You cand find that "pre-runner" on ebay for about $250.00. All it consists of is the tube pre runner, it attaches to your orignial bumper behind the plastic covering.
Search ebay motors #350058011572 and there you go..............
