    Re: upper half doors ?

    i don't think they are interchangable.

    I just recieved some YJ upper windows for half steel doors in the mail today, and i found out they do not work with a hard top do to the windows being squared, and hardtop being curved..i wish i had looked closer before buying, i guess now i have a reason to buy a soft top though

    Unfortunately the design of the soft top 1/2 door is different between the YJ & TJ at the top rear of the door. TJs are rounded, YJs are squared.

    Re: upper half doors ?

    the tj doors will work--not perfect--i just bent the pin that is closest to the latch, out, towards the inside of the jeep--the two front pins line up perfectly--the fab fix is to cut of the pin and fab it up correctly--but this is how i threw them on my jeep--ac
