Comparison of 4dr tube doors..
OK.
Heres the unofficial comparison of the ( 4 ) types of tube doors that I can find so far.
This is to help me pick which ones I need for my Black 4dr.
Any input or experience would be much apprciated.
The Bestop are pretty much eliminated from my shopping list cause they arent available for the 4dr yet
Please feel free to mention any more if they are out there.
OR FAB:
Rancho:
Warrior:
And the elusive Bestop/HIghrock/ Element:
Only front doors so far
Thanks to all whose pics I've used.

I am getting the Bestop element doors and ordering the enclosures when they become available! The Rancho's are nice but they said they are not planning on any type of enclosure or mesh screens for them. I like the fact that both will accept the factory mirrors.

I like the Ranchos, except that on the rears, the door sticks up aboce the line of the tub. Most of the rear ones I've seen are like this. I suspect that's what's taking Bestop so long on the rear design. They'll probably have to re-design a new latch, and other manufacturers are using current production stuff.
I do like the versatility of the Bestop Element doors, if the ever release the rear doors and the window halfs.

I think for the price and availability, I'm probably gonna go with the Warrior doors. I think I can live with the body lines ( or lack there of)
Now...where's the best deal......?

Reasons why I DONT like the Ranchos:
1. Uses factory mirror mount....I know that this is the reason why most DO like them, but the stock mount looks like crap with that big bolt thing sticking inside.
2. Too big...Looks like someone forgot to put the skin on a stock door
3. No mesh or cover of any kind
4. It doesn't line up with the body line at the rear either ( like the warriior )
