Side door braces?
Nakatenga does a rear safari door one, but are any made for side doors?

What could most easily be adapted as a side door brace? Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world. Not a fashion vehicle, but fashionable to own. Made for the needy, not the greedy. Ta ta Defender

Do you mean a gas strut? I'm not sure why you'd need one on a side door. The back door benefits because of the weight of the spare wheel, but side doors should stay open by the existing mechanism if adjusted properly. Darren

mud stuff do side door braces, so do x-eng... these allow you to open your 2nd row doors slightly more
