Actually the rake is the same. There are minor, VERY minor, differences - mostly having to do with the contour around the door vis a vis the windshield, and so on. Also, the doorlatch pins are different.
I had a crack at CJ doors for my 98 TJ and we tried them on...they fit close, SO close. But we couldn't close the doors, and I couldn't take the time to figure why.
The hardtop the same way. Only difference is in the contour at the top of the windshield. I dunno know WHY they made them close, so close, but not interchangealbe
