shelbyluvv · Jul 19, 2004

I have recently removed my front doors and made these cool tubers. Anyone know the law regaurding them in Ga. I want to know for sure if it is legal before I get pulled over for it. Thanks for any help.

Sweet. Can you get some closeups of the latch setup? Thanks.

Those look sweet man, but you're going to get DW

I asked a buddy of mine who used to be a cop in Barrow county. He said as far as he knows there is no regulation on running without doors. The only thing he ever heard of was some obscure law about open air rides recquiring shoulder harnessed seat belts (which obviously all cherokees have in the front seats) . Something about older open air vehicles with lap belts only made it possible for a person to flop out partially and get hurt in rollovers.

Closeups would be great - is it an illusion or does the top line of the door drop about an inch or so? Any reason not to keep it parallel with the two body panel creases?

You need mirrors.

I took mine off the other day and dont have any death wobble whatsoever.

I agree with Rev Dan that no mirrors might be the only legal issue here. I'm looking into doing something like this soon on my 91' 2 door.

i wanted them to tilt down a little for arm comfort. I also bought some $6 Wally world mirror and put them on yesterday.

I'm not liking it visually but I like the idea.

But for the price, FREE, they were a good buy.

Just got off the phone with the GSP out here in Tifton and he said that he can find nothing on the books about it. Just wear your seat belt and have a mirror and all is well. Thanks for all the replies and comments on the doors, Robert.
