What is the easiest way to remove the doors on an XLT?

[Jstcruz]

I know to take the bolts out of the hinges and the door comes off, what I'm unsure about is the harness going into the doors. Do I disconnect everything and drag it out of the door?

Any info is appreciated!

On the front doors there is a big black cylinder bolted to the door that the wires run thru. On top of that cylinder there is a 10mm (I think) capture bolt. If you put a socket on the bolt and turn it, it will push the two parts of the cylinder apart until they disconnect. Door and body are now disconnected electrically. I assume the back doors are the same, but I have never looked. Good luck.
