    Yea its fairly easy to do. I found the write-up that I followed to get my doors set up. The guy is doing it to a 4runner but it is essentially the same thing.

    Quick release hinge write-up

    Look at build!
    Ive done this a while back when I made my tube doors for a member and myself... check link in my sig. I used the quick pins as well but I used 5/16 pins and I just leave the little hinge that helps keep the door open off.. takes me about 5 minutes to swap from reg doors to tube doors and vice versa

    Yea the write-up I posted says 7/16" pins so I don't remember what size pins I bought. I was thinking I used 5/16" also but can't recall. I have been using the little door stopper thing but I think I melted the ones on my half doors when I welded them up so I might just cut them off so they don't get in the way.

    I was gonna say shoulder height! Holy shit how did your truck get so damn tall!

    Then realized the same thing monte did haha.
    Arm pit huh. Still pretty tall. Will be curious to see where I'm at with tires and 63s. I'll have to make a new bpv bracket as well after that
    Haha tht would be annoying having it that relatively high. I like beig able to reach in and grab stuff

    I can still grab stuff, all I have to do it step on the rock slider kickout. I never really need to grab anything out of the bed anyways. All my stuff is in the toolbox.
