hvachap Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 I'm looking for replacement seats for my Comanche I saw that early Cherokee seats had the same narrow mounting rails and therefore interchangeable my Question is are 97+ Cherokees the same narrow rail interchangeable seats?
HOrnbrod Posted August 5, 2010 Posted August 5, 2010 1994 was the change year for XJ seats, so 1993 and below XJ seats are bolt-in. From a 2-door XJ preferrably since they tilt forward. The newer seats require modification.
hvachap Posted August 5, 2010 Author Posted August 5, 2010 Ah-ha Excellent thanks. any idea if the rear flares interchange?
mkbruin Posted August 5, 2010 Posted August 5, 2010 1994 was the change year for XJ seats, so 1993 and below XJ seats are bolt-in. From a 2-door XJ preferrably since they tilt forward. The newer seats require modification. Wrong. While the tracks may be the same, the bases are different and the swap is NOT a bolt-in. You need to grind, drill, cut the tack welds and rivets, then bolt/weld the swapped over bases.
HOrnbrod Posted August 5, 2010 Posted August 5, 2010 Yep, I should have clarified this better. The XJ 86-93 bucket seats will bolt into an MJ IF you swap the MJ brackets (bench or bucket) to the XJ buckets. Or do as mkbruin stated and swap the bases.
hvachap Posted August 6, 2010 Author Posted August 6, 2010 Right on I thank ya'll for the info it helps narrow the donor field.
