Yes

Yes

Yes

It's a 2 door so I'd say it would be worse.. In all honestly it depends on if you wheel it or not and how hard you wheel it.. a little trail ride here and there and it's not going to affect anything... major flex/binding over and over again and you may have some issues but probably not...

What's the point of removing the doors and hatch? ....
 
looking to be able to see better...not completly kill my doors and weight. what about a flop or roll???? you think it would completly crush without doors and hatch...i mean ive seen them crush pretty good with all together.
 
No the doors are not really structural members... the pillars are structural. Look at JohnnyJprs flop.. it pretty much trashed the drivers side but didnt cave in.. Now for a mulitple roll scenario, well I wouldnt want to be in it.. a slow roll w/o the doors or hatch isnt going to flatten the jeep IMO.
