Hey all! I came across a set of YJ half doors with uppers for cheap. I'm wondering if they will work on my 01 TJ?? Thanks for the help!
If its the uppers with the rounded edge that look like a TJ door, then dimensionally they will fit. However the latch is different and the latch on the TJ itself would need to be modified.

Where did you get your doors painted?The windshield on a YJ is at a steeper angle than a TJ by about 4* so although it would close you'd have a large wind/rain gap.
If you're using YJ lower hard doors you can modify a set of TJ uppers to fit. It requires that you cut the rear most mounting peg and reposition/reweld it to fit.
These are TJ Bestop soft uppers on YJ hard lowers. The second pic shows the rear mounting peg cut off but I hadn't yet repositioned it and rewelded it to the upper.View attachment 89430View attachment 89431

All good, I’m the guy that bought the doors from you a few years ago. I remember that you got a good deal on the paint work. I was hoping the body shop was still around. No worriesAt a body shop in Bradford on Artesian Industrial Parkway. The company I dealt with closed down and I think there is a CARSTAR shop there now.
