I've wanted to do some half doors on the samurai for some time now and with the new facelift I figured why not now. I looked at alot of doors and mainly didn't like the idea of a rod sticking up or some other fashioned latching device and decided to keep the factory door latch and handles. Here's what I came up with. I began by removing the exterior and interior handle mountings then trimmed them to fit in their new locations and welded them in. I then created the tunnel to house the interior handle rod. Next was to modify the exterior handle rod to latch. Once this was done I capped off the door with 14g steel and welded them into place. Finished the door and hinges off with fresh paint.
