    I think with the doors completely off you can torque the cab a bit much on extreme rocks. I have had a few times where I opened the door to check an angle and could barely get it shut.

    While torqued, ya... the doors do add some stability, but as long as you don't tweak the frame, the cab returns to normal on level ground.

    A Unibody "crossover" like the Rav4? Hell no. The door is a part of your "frame" and if the body tweaks without the door, it's done twunk.

    ive always wanted to take the doors off and relocate the speakers underneath the seats so you could be doorless and still have sound

    i was in my friends jeep with no doors the other day... i'd consider quick release hinges i guess.. It was kinda fun. But then i'd only have the rear speakers, idk how i feel about no doors other then just for wheeling

    It's fun, but kinda tempting to lean out and watch the tire placement. Bad thing is the entire inside of your truck will need a hell of a cleaning after you wheel with them
