Is anyone else going to order a set of the fronts? I found the rear half doors and even the rear armored half doors to take parts off of to complete the fronts. These make an excellent alternative to the overpriced X doors.
I am finding two different types of rear half doors. One appears to be not as wide with a spacer on the hinge side and then the other is normal width. Where does the one with the spacer that is not as wide as the other come from? Any benefits to one over the other?
I would prefer if they used the X door hardware so I can switch between the two without having to change out the door strikers. Also, are you sure the soft door hinges wouldn't cause fit issues with possible sagging due to the weight.
Hopefully TedG chimes in as he has had sets of half doors made in the past. I would buy a set to have. See link below:

Dock Rocker, below is some of the set up I am leaning towards:
Running two Rigid Dually floods in the front and two in the rear

Using a Blue Sea Circuit...
Do you plan on using any relays or are the not necessary? I have looked at running the Blue Sea circuit break and then the Blue Sea fuse box for power to a radio, interior light, and some led cube lights. Just don't know if relays are needed or even where they would go in a setup like that.
I agree with Dock Rocker if you want civi light bars. If I were to do it over again I would use Rigid or Aurora led light bars and cubes all over. I plan on adding some cubes and a mini light bar on the grill of mine when I get chance.
If you look in the hot rodding 5 ton section, you will see...
I have the Ibis Tek 78" light bar in the front and am trying to adapt an Ibis tek 24" for the rear. The Ibis Tek came with brackets that mate up to the side mirror holes in the windshield frame. However, the brackets are know to be a little weak and I will be having a set made out of steel when...
I have seen them on very few. A few antennas that were surplused a couple of years ago came with them. Finding pictures is hard. I want one because the aluminum flexes some with just the mount and washers.
