When you unhook the door be very careful because your mirror can swing around and dent your cowl. Many many many dented cowls out there.

Get something soft to put your doors on. I use an old yoga/sleeping mat. Also pick up a tube of white lithium grease so you can grease up your door hinges. Keep your doors greased up and you can remove them one handed!

Park with your front end pointed uphill and you will never end up with the cowl mod. Not sure why so many end up making this mistake. No offense but this is simple physics. I knew to do this well before I ever heard of people denting their cowl while removing their doors. Just sayin. Sent from my iPhone using JK-Forum |
HA HA, that was my first dent.

As far as things to do, here's a little checklist off the top of my head:
|
I always screw the door's torx nuts back on the door so I don't loose them. That great advise on the seat belt pad. The flapping will drive you nuts.
|
Best tip I ever got was to place refrigerator magnets beneath the hinge while you undo the torx bolts. You won't scratch your paint with your ratchet this way. I keep a magnet in my Jeep at all times just for this.
