I have a set of monkey bars .
I don't think they make them anymore tho TBH .
Just curious what your reasoning for the tube doors are? Don't add any extra "protection" or anything...
I bought mine b/c I got them for cheap and there are'nt too many of those around here
Plus they look cool . ;D
I like the nice clean look from the Olympic ones. Then again, the Warrior doors look more substantial. Of course, neither do much for occupant safety. My real preference are the Bestop Element doors, and add the storage bags. But, that's a bit pricey compared to what you were looking at.
I was looking at these doors.

AWESOME! BUT
QuoteOur bare Jeep tube door price per pair is $489.00
I like the look of these better.
AWESOME! BUT
True but everything is included mirror arm rest and the toggle for interior lights, and they are structurally sound.
I liked when he said he's going to "INVEST" in a set of doors. There's nothing on a jeep that is an investment
J/K bro. We've all spent more money on our jeeps then we'll ever recoup.

What kind of crazy question is that? It's a jeep and must be fed...
I really like the $489 doors that got posted, they look bad a$$. I can't bring myself to drop that much coin on it. I think I may shoot to add the armrest I saw on them to the top of the Warrior doors...
I do miss the armres when the doors are off. Sometimes i forget, try to put my arm up and almost fall out the door... So I guess there is small safety factor there... Good for stoopid people who can't remember the door is off.

These look like they would help if you rubbed up against a tree.
I have always wheeled without doors, never once had a tree rub into the door opening, the upper cage tube will hit well before a tree will come into the cab... The doors could be beneficial in a nice flop onto a rock that just so happens to be right in that area, thats about it though.

The only thing I can imagine is the pic of that branch that speared the rocker panel of the JK and almost killed the driver. Then I think of it coming in sideways through the tube door. But if it's going to happen anyway, you might as well go out wheeling.

Yeah, good point, but imagine how small the QTech catalog would be if they only sold "useful" items! Lol
I prefer the visibility of no doors but if you are going off road, think about soft half doors to prevent mud spray. Even with the doors on, theMistaken and I got a few shots in the face of black coal mud last weekend.
They are also the easiest to just rip off and throw in the back when you want.
FWIW, this is a new company to the tube door market and I don't know anything about them but might be worth a look.

Not sure I want to swap out the striker every time I swap doors out.

Mud spray is right. I love going wheeling even with the half doors on with no top....makes the next day interior clean up interesting ;

No kidding.. what kind of a design is that? Outside of that, they looked pretty cool
Captain, you'd think for that price those tube doors would have gimbaled cup holder for your perfect cup of morning camp coffee!!
