bestop fabric full doors
They are good doors but they’re not perfect. I got them for the half door look but with the option for rain and wind coverage. Plus the windows can be stored in the jeep on the trail.

Meela,
I took your work order in and told them this is the sound. But, they said the waste gate actuator was not the noise. Said the timing chain was it. I’m going to talk to jeep cares to get them to dig into it deeper.
The noise is more faint from the drivers seat but I always had too...
I took my Jeep to the Dealership to have this clicking looked at for the fifth time. Thinking it was the turbo. They said it was the timing chain and it is normal 🤬😡🤬😡. This is a very annoying click noise. So now my $50k jeep sounds like a old rusty bucket. I need some help with this...
