| The Pro Armor slam latch is designed to work as a retrofit kit with all existing Polaris RZR & RZR S doors. This slam latch will also work with the front doors on the RZR 4. It bolts in between the a-pillar and the actual door, installs in minutes. Comes with an automotive grade slam latch and all necessary hardware, including longer bolts for the a-pillar. Price: $49.95 Direct link: http://www.proarmor.com/product_p/p081290.htmThe Pro Armor suicide doors are all aluminum construction to save weight and ensure strength and durability for any type of riding or racing. The doors are direct bolt on to your Polaris RZR with no drilling. They have a 3 point mounting system (a pillar, b pillar and under seat mount to frame) making them the strongest and best design on the market period. The doors are available with sheet metal skins or nets and are fully interchangeable. Direct link: http://www.proarmor.com/product_p/p081205bl.htmAvailable through your local dealer or call Pro Armor direct at 888-31-ARMOR, or you can place your order at www.proarmor.com | |

| They fit terribly.....IMO..Maybe someone else has had better luck???
We tried these on my buddy Josh's RZR....and adjusted them every way possible....couldn't get them to fit.
PWM has the same problems with his....His passenger side door will not even un-latch. | |

| I hate them. You can adjust them and they work fine until you get off camber and everything re-adjusts. | |

That's because the frame flexes so badly.............and they are poorly designed doors. | |

| I love my proarmor doors.. The RZR frame flexes way to much. Its not the doors fault the frame sucks.. I installed frame gusset kit a S cage with a couple extra braces and installed a front bumper that helps stiffen up the front. I can tell a big difference in how much the frame flexes.. If your doors are adjusted right they are pretty easy to close with the old latches.. I can do it with one hand NP. IMO the old latch seems safer and more secure. The frame/door would have to get bent up pretty bad for the stock one to fail. Whats the point in having doors if they just pop open in a roll over.. | |

| That is one reason I like Top Dog's doors. The door latch pin goes into a slot, not a hole. You can watch the door pin move up and down in the slot as you drive. | |

| I finally got my doors to pop open. I wish we had a pic of it. It is hard to believe the frame can flex that much. Wow!!!! | |

| When you jump your front wheels up and over an aprox. 4 ft. tree and come down on the frame in between the axles.... the frame is going to flex a little | |

| Your door just popped open. It didn't fall off and get run over by the back tire like the other RZR | |

You know that is a very good point on how tough the JL2 doors are. Big Bore did a burn out on top of his door and it did not bend. | |
