Looks like the left door was dropped in shipping, but can be fixed with body work. Worst case scenario I yank the window frame and put it on a good lower door.

So, in less than a month, I have found a set of CJ-10a doors and a set of YJ half doors (at a reasonable price)!

So stoked! Whoop!

UPS drop ship those doors for you, anything shipped you really have to over protect these days.

Emphasis on the DROP. Doors came from a prominent Jeep dismantler from the north east. Not too bad considering they traveled half way across the states to get to me, but terrible considering UPS’s only job is to move goods From point a to point b unharmed.

I think a pool noodle around the perimeter would have prevented it, so just as much blame is to be placed on the shipper.

They rank at the top with not caring. Over 35 years ago I worked for a freight forwarder. The brown showed up with a pissed off driver. He just started pitching boxes 20 some feet through the air. I've caught them tossing boxes onto my front porch.

That is what I'm talking about, except I believe brown was the last one !
