Looking to remove the top off my 40 and wanted to see if there are any recommendations for tube doors or other half doors that fit right onto the existing door hinge holes or hinges. Don’t really want to put any new holes in frame.

Thanks in advance.

Do an internet search, there's several folks selling tube 1/2 doors or search here. Some folks make 1/2 doors out old doors. Just about all of them requires using a 1/2 set of stk hinges and pins. The problem is the upper door pin interferes with the windshield frame when you remove it. You can probably shorten the upper pins. @69LC sells quick hinges which allow for quick and easy door swaps from full door to 1/2 doors styles.

I run a seat belt and no doors and carry a set of 2 piece soft doors on days it might rain. They breakdown, so they store easilybin the 40.
I think bestop offers 2 piece doors. I recently picked up an old set of Kayline 2 piece soft doors. Now I'm making a 1/2 set of hinges, so i don't have to use stk hinges and pins.
