Title: modding TJ softdoors for YJ
Post by: JackstandJohnny on December 23, 2009, 06:07:29 PM

i'm bringing my moms besttop soft doors home with me for christmas seeing as she never uses them.  so i'm wondering if these will be compatible with my YJ or if i'm up poops creek without a paddle.
can i change out the locks?  is it possible?   or am i better off to sell these, to purchase a set for the YJ?
thanks

They'll fit the yellow TJ that is parked out front of your place....

The doors are the same size the thing that is different is the striker plate.  YJ's have the v with a pin and TJ's have an actual latch on the tub.  You can change the latch over.

If they are black and you are having trouble making them fit I would be interested in looking at them for my TJ!!!
