Do all Jeep Wrangler doors come off

So, you’ve seen a Jeep driving down the road or out on the trails without any doors and you’re understandably intrigued. Removing the doors of one’s Jeep is a pretty common practice, but if you’ve never done so yourself, you may not understand the seemingly strange trend. Well, there are actually numerous advantages to going doorless that you may be interested in enjoying. Below, we will address some of the main reasons to take off the doors of your Jeep.

To Increase Your Jeep’s Fuel Efficiency

One of the main reasons why people remove the doors on their Jeep is to improve its fuel efficiency. Each front door on a Jeep typically weighs around 70 pounds, and each back door generally weighs around 45 pounds. As such, removing all the doors on your Jeep can decrease the weight of your vehicle by a whopping 350 pounds. That’s a large load!

Because removing 100 pounds of weight from a vehicle can typically increase its fuel economy by 1 to 2 percent, removing your Jeep’s doors can ultimately have a large impact on how much you pay at the pump.

To Make Room for More Weight

Another one of the top reasons to take off the doors of your Jeep is to make room for more weight. As previously stated, removing the doors of your Jeep can decrease the weight of your vehicle by around 350 pounds. That’s extra weight that you can now add back onto your vehicle if you need to tow a large load. For those that need to do some heavy lifting with their Jeep without exceeding its towing capacity, removing the doors is an advantageous option.

To Get the Full Off-Roading Experience

Removing your Jeep’s doors isn’t just a practical move, it can also make driving a lot more enjoyable. Off-roading within a concealed cabin is fun in its own right, don’t get us wrong. But cruising down trails while the air hits your skin, mud flies up around you, and you enjoy a more unobstructed view of your beautiful surroundings is an entirely different experience. If you’re an avid off-roader, you’re going to want to see the difference that removing your Jeep’s doors can make out on the trials.

It’s Easy To Do

Unlike many other Jeep modifications, removing the doors of your Jeep is an extremely quick and easy process. Jeep Wranglers were pretty much designed to have their door’s taken off. As such, the process isn’t hard to figure out with the help of a simple Jeep door removal guide.

To make the act of removing and storing your Jeep’s doors even easier, consider investing in a Top Lift Pro Jeep door removal tool. Our innovative product will help you maintain perfect balance and control while removing your Jeep’s heavy doors for a safe and easy removal, storage, and reinstallation process.

Nature is calling you? There’s nothing like a Jeep Wrangler to go on an adventure. But the legendary American 4x4 can be quite expensive and because of that, many people choose to turn to a pre-owned model.

The Wrangler is one of the vehicles that maintain the highest resale value. However, once the manufacturer’s warranty is over, you should consider establishing a budget for repairs and maintenance, since its reliability can be somewhat random.

In any event, the Wrangler is not for everybody, but those who can’t live without one should know how to exploit its full potential and get the maximum value for their money. Its removable doors are a good example; taking them off will guarantee an unparalleled on- and off-road driving experience!

But just how difficult is it to remove the doors on a Wrangler? It’s not exactly easy. It takes a while and requires practice, but maybe not as much as you think. Here’s the process as described by Jeep.   

How to Proceed

First, you must locate and detach the interior panels in the front end of each door to access the electrical connectors. Removing these panels will also allow you to access and unhook the nylon straps that keep the doors from opening too far.

Then, you must undo the electrical connector and remove the nylon strap from the hook. Depending on the model, the front door connector can differ slightly from the rear door’s because it allows the operation of the power locks and windows, as well as the power mirrors, and in some cases, the blind spot monitoring system.

Once the strap and electrical connector are detached, you must keep the door open and locate the hinge. Using the tools provided with the vehicle, you must then remove the bolt that secures the hinge to the door jamb.

Still with us? Ok. Next, you must move to the outside of the door, find the bolts that are screwed from the bottom in each outside hinge and remove them with the included tools mentioned above.

When each strap, connector and lock is free, the only thing left to do is to lift the door and put it in a safe place. Unfortunately, unlike the new four-door Ford Bronco, you can’t store the doors inside the vehicle (behind the backseat) to reinstall them whenever you need.
