Tube doors for an FJ40?
« on: Jun 20, 2006, 09:21:04 AM »
Anyone know of site or person on this, or any board, that makes tube doors for an FJ40?
I've checked on Pirate and Mud. Some sites that used to offer them don't anymore (Shaffers Offroad,
AORdoors.com, Man-a-Fre). And Marlin does not make them for FJ40's  :(. I don't have the equipment
to make them myself.

Thanks,
John

I don't see a point in making tube doors for them......Thats probably why.......Cuse they look nice without doors anyways..... But not  a truck...

Pick up- yes
 fj40- no need

Well, they aren't for looks, they're for protection. Something to keep things from entering through the door area (rocks, stumps, etc.), and to keep my legs inside the cab, in case of a roll.

best chance would be build them yourself. Obviousl not  alot of people out there are looking for it thats why its not on the market pre made.

It seems the most popular fix is to put on half doors.  I made mine from an old set of junkyard doors.  There are a few threads on the topic...

'82 pickup, +3, locked, doubled
'82 pickup, IFS long travel, V8
'85 4runner, V8 rock crawler
'88 X-cab, V6
