You should be okay with the DOT4. It and 3 are compatible, 4 has a higher boiling point.

OK, good! That's what I thought but I had a bad dream the other night that the Dot4 swelled all the seals in my master cylinder for some reason.

I just got my half doors back from paint. I can't decide if I like the hinges black or if I should get them painted to match.

Sweet! I think it'd look good either way - the black being a good accent but maybe paint matched would look more factory.

When I get a door hung I'll post a pic.

Painted.

The black looks better then I thought but the hinges being miss matched is bothering me.

After seeing them on I'm leaning towards painted

Paint the hinges would be my vote

 

[Spazbyt]

I think you guys are right. I'm gana get them painted.

Those look great! Who makes them?
I’m looking to get half doors in the spring, looking at 2 manufacturers: Motobuilt and Genright.
I’d appreciate any help or input from you.
Thanks

Also just noticed, no mirrors?

You do realize he's got a JK right?

No I didn’t, oh well.
Still looks great though.

I snagged a set of the Motobilt doors for my JK on a Black Friday deal a couple years back. The sets for the JL's are the basically the same.
Both brands are nice but I like the Motobilt better than the Genright ones.

 

[Spazbyt]

They are Genright but they offer a JL/JT door as well.

I like the Motobilt ones too. I like the interior finish of the doors.
So you mentioned a “Black Friday sale”? They go on sale? I’m all for saving a dollar.

Did you get the bags for the doors? Do you like them? I was going to have a shop make the interior panels maybe. Just plywood and vinyl covering of some kind.

Sorry for hijacking the thread.

No bags or arm pads yet. I will look into them after I get the doors finished.
