How To Take the Doors Off a Jeep

The first thing you have to do when learning how to take the doors off a Jeep is to fold the side mirrors and make sure the windows are rolled down all the way. Next, just follow these simple steps:

1. Remove the footwell under the dashboard near the b-pillar to disconnect any power cables. This should be as easy as removing the clip attached to it.
2. Take the doors straps off by removing them from the hooks.
3. Take the bolt out of the door hinges and slide the door off.
4. Do the same for the other doors on the vehicle. 
5. Make sure to disable the alarm on the door by disconnecting the negative wire from the battery and placing it away from the terminal. You can then remove the cover for the fuse box, and study the diagram provided for the fuses. Now that you know where the Door Jam Defeat fuse is located, use needle-nose pliers to remove the fuse. You can now reconnect the negative cable to the battery.

You may not have to remove a fuse if you’ve got a newer Jeep Wrangler model. If you’re not sure, be sure to reference your owner’s manual for specifics.
