What did you do to your TJ today?

Barnes skid is decently priced alternative albeit money savings comes with a weight penalty (you also need a 1" body lift).
Thank you!
Ok.. I’ve got passenger side and back on… they go on really easy and are snug.. real happy with them and I can only imagine how well them will fit after they relax alittle .. high quality feel!
Ya’ll Rubigrabbers are killin’ me, between you and @John Cooper all I’m gonna have left is some soft top windows that don’t match and some floor mats.
Have we not got this member the Forum Guidebook I publish and distribute annually?
I’ve already had to pick up several sets of non approved painted doors- right out of the Wal Mart parking lot.
Its crazy how people don’t lock their jeeps.
Note- I’ve got a lot of doors to sell now, we need to run an ad Chris.
Those doo look good for sure. And as you said, they will look even better after a bit of use. I am still undecided. The IGGEE seat covers are also highly recommended and I discovered they have a really interesting fabric called Spacer Mesh. Check them out here…
A few members here have them and really like them.
Did you do the lumbar pillow or seat warmers?
I’ll take a clean set in any color that doesn’t match my Jeep. I leave mine unlocked so feel free to pass by, take my old paint matched doors and install a set of halfies in a different color…
Thank you!
There's an aftermarket steel one for sale in classifieds right now:

No.. I didn’t know there was a option and not really a need in my life currently for that.. I’m sure either one you will pick will be nice.. but I haven’t ever heard of the other ones.. but I have seen these after a few years of wear and they hold up nicely..
FYI…. I’ve got a buddy that just got a wrecked Tj.. he’s going to be getting rid of a lot of parts..and building the other TJ…. full doors . Soft tops.. etc…I’m going to look at the stuff Wednesday… anyone message me and I’ll see what he had available

I love mine. They have been on for 2 or 3 years now and are just like the day I installed them. No sagging or looseness at all.
Wasn't today but yesterday. 2nd time off-road with it, much different than the first time. Aired down and disconnected for the first time and it made a difference.
Scraped a bit banged into a tree, but all and all came out in one piece. Even won a raffle (Tom Woods driveshaft gift certificate, plus some other goodies
)
But best of all it raised some money for a charity. It was a fun day meeting some new people and expanding my very meager off-road experience.
And now some decisions are going to have to be made on what direction I'm going to go with it. And I know everyone here will help me spend my money wisely

Not sure on the quality of these, but this is what you're looking for. You could also post something in the wanted section to see if someone in your area has one they are willing to part with.

Yes we will.
Bartacts are really one of the few products in this world that really seem to be worth the money-
I’m with you they have exceeded every expectation- And amaze me how easy they clean up.
I like the fact that they have just the right amount of traction but you can move around in the jeep better than cloth-
I really wish they made them for other vehicles.

Just did a track and trace on mine and they are still in the US at the moment.
On a side note I spoke to Bartact a couple weeks ago about their quality they said they have a number of people who had theirs for 8 to 10 years and they are still holding up well.
As getting anything out of the USA is expensive with freight and the exchange rate and of course it can take 2 to 3 weeks or more to get here I want to buy good quality the first time around so I don’t have to re-order.
Added a small LED license plate light to pair with the tail lights.

Good decision… mine took 6 weeks for delivery
I'm one of those folks. After having their seat covers, I wouldn't buy anything else. To be fair, my jeeps are always stored inside, but their seat cover fit and durability is 1st class.
