    What is safe on one vehicle may not necessarily be safe on another.

    I'm not an engineer, but I have plenty of friends who are and seem to think no doors is a bad idea. Doors provide a significant amount of crash protection and some rigidity.

    For a weekend off road trip, I'd love tube doors. They would open up a huge amount of visibility. I wouldn't DD them because I've been in a serious accident before and appreciate the protection doors provide.

    I think it looks pretty cool, but removing/installing the doors would be a pain in the ass. Also, THE DUST. DUST EVERYWHERE. The outside of the truck can get as dirty as it wants, but I want a clean interior.

    Is this a modified 4X innovations double cab tube door? I'm unaware of a company making them for the AC.

    Do the AC doors latch differently than DC doors?

    Dude this. People who run tube and/or no doors never off road their rigs. If they did they would know what pain in the ass it is trying to drive with clouds of dust or mud flying into the cab.
