solid so far! They have not been any different than having windows. No dust or water.

Cheers, thanks for the update.

I read "gullwing doors" and my brain went to this.

Those are Lambo style doors.

These are gullwing doors….

Been a bit of a process to get here but I finally have both of my gull wing doors installed in my 4 door to replace the rear hard top glass.

Step one was to remove the glass from the hard top. I wanted to keep my glass intact and not mess up the MIC top trying to cut the seal with a knife so I reached out to a local glass shop to see if they would take car of it. Took the shop about 30 minutes and cost $200 but worth not breaking a window to me.

Home in the garage windowless

Also did my buddies 2 door at the same time

Taped up the top to prevent scratches

two door install

The doors install with an EPDM rubber gasket that's adhesive and has an inner and outer frame that bolt together to sandwich the seal. Its a strong fit and seals well.

I left my passenger side open for cargo area access and have a molle panel and air compressor/first aid kit set up on the driver side.

Solid product that adds a lot of utility to the bronco for me. Its so nice having my air set up ready to go, just pop the door, flip the switch connect tire.

Any reason these can’t be installed with the hard top removed? Seems like there would be less obstructions. I love how these utilize a mostly otherwise wasted cargo space.

nope im sure it can be done with the top off. the shop I used to pull the glass wanted the top on though. They said more rigid and less risk of damage.

@Mikerider How has the windows been performing? Any issues with leaking or otherwise?

Working good! no leaks to speak of. The fitment of my passenger side door could be a little better but no leaks! I love the functionality of them.

Nice! I am looking to use it as an air up location as well, I was thinking about adapting a Kracken system or ding my own version from McMaster parts. I am also thinking about installing a diesel air heater for snow wheeling, build a sold shell behind it.

Would love to know more about your compressor set up

I wish they made an external molle panel like Armadillo designs has on theirs for mounting traction boards, shovels/axes, etc..

If you bought something like this, I'm sure you could easily adapt it. Drill a few holes and get some aluminum spacers and longer bolts. Done!!

You might need to replace the lift supports with one that has a higher capacity.

Nothing too special, I made a bracket to mount the an ARB twin on the roll bar, then added a molle panel to mount my moreflate hoses too.

Love this, but I think these guys are out of business. Anyone else offer this type of solution specifically for the four-door

An unused ground point behind the side panels in the cargo area
