Removing the Doors Off a Jeep

Although the task can seem daunting, it’s relatively easy to take apart your Jeep doors. Start by ensuring your side mirrors are folded in and the windows are rolled down to protect the glass. Then, follow these steps for how to take the doors off your Jeep:

• Removing the footwell under your dashboard or by the b-pillar gives you access to the power cables you need to disconnect. It simply pops off by removing the clips that attach it.
• To remove the door straps, gently lift them off the hooks.
• Carefully removing the bolts from the door hinges allows you to gently slide the door off.
• Continue repeating the previous steps for the remaining doors.
• You’ll also need to disable the door alarm by detaching the negative lead from the battery and putting it to the side, away from the terminal. Next, you’ll need to remove the fuse box cover and examine the diagram of the fuses to identify which fuse to disconnect. Once you’ve located the Door Jam Defeat fuse, safely remove it with fuse clips or needle-nose pliers. You’re now able to reconnect the negative battery cable and start your next adventure!

It’s a good idea to store your doors in a dry place out of the way to prevent any damage to them. Also, taking the time to lube the door hinges makes it easier to take apart your Jeep in the future.
