No not removable. Just replacements. Toying with the idea of tube doors.

Here's an update.

$40 of paint and it looks alot better. Need to redo the hood though. But needed to get paint on it before it started corroding.

Picked up the lights at Walmart on the clearance shelf. All for $70. 500 watts each.

My first thought was, "2WD Jeep? Blasphemy!" But I guess being in Texas, the 4WD isn't as critical as it is up north. smile

No crawling rear end is way too weak. Not a mudder I hate cleaning mud out after.

More of a pre-runner and DD for the boys.

Went to the pick n pull today. Needed a new circuit board for one of the tail lights on the truck. Found a complete 87 Cherokee on the lot with great interior. Pulled the both bucket seats, the rear seat all the plastic trim and a "luggage rack" got it all for the low low price of $85!!!! Pics to come once all the interior is together. Going to use one of the old bucket seats to make a gaming chair that has my wheel and pedals mounted to wink
