we need to know a little more info first.
what type/year jeep do you have, CJ? YJ? TJ?
what type of top do you have, soft? hard? and is it factory or aftermarket?
just a note, that link you posted took me to replacement door shells for 78-87 chevy trucks. oh, and another thing, door shells, like in your link, generally don't have any of the other stuff with them, they are just a shell. so, you'd still have to fine all the hardware, glass, and interior pannels for the doors.
I think your best bet would be to find a set of used doors from a jeep that is close to the same year as the one you have.
as far as swapping the doors, it's prety simple, just lift off the half doors, and drop the full doors into the hinges. you may have to adjust the hinges a little bit, but that's a prety simple thing to do as well.
oh, and one other thing, if you happen to have a YJ with a factory soft top, you'll also need a new top, because you can't use full doors with the factory YJ soft tops.

I just wanted to drop a message for whatever mod is listening. This guy is trying to promote his crappy company, and does it via these posts. He's already been to a forum I moderate (nicoclub.com).
Just a heads up!! This isn't a legit question, he's trying to sell crap.
I'll stick around tho, looks like a good place :)

rlblue,
that's cool, guess it really is a small world. I work at Purdue, so it seems like I'm in the lafayette area more than I'm at home.
and thanks for the heads up about this guy.
