Rancho for me too. I really like how they look. I'm not sure how they install though, but they look like they would be a good fit.

Im suprised nobody spoke about the Smittybilts.


Bought them last summer and LOVED them.

The factory mirrors can attach.

They do rattle a little tought.

i've been pulled over for a lot of other fix-it infractions but, never for running tube doors or no doors. in CA, so long as you have a driver side mirror installed, you can run without doors at all.

I have the bestop tube doors. They are light and seem very durable. Only drawback is if you dont take your time dialing in the latch, they are a pita to open from inside.

I run the smittys as well and I took care of the rattle by wrapping the door catch with a little electrical tape and it went away completely. I also bought a set of after market mirrors and modded them on so I wouldn't have to remove my stockers. I just got the rear doors and haven't put them on yet. I'll shoot some pics when I do and repost.
Picture is old, pre lift and a slew of other upgrades but you get the idea.

Eddie, in your picture above, is that your mirror solution or OR-Fab's solution?
