another seat question

[M1A1TankerTom]

went to my local junkyard today and they just got an 88 MJ in. One thing that caught my eye is it has bucket seats (as where my truck has a bench). Was thinking about grabbing them but the seats themselves are crap (ripped to hell, headrest bent, drivers side won't fold down forward, etc). So I am wondering is it worth it to grab the brackets off the bottom of the seats? Guy said he would sell me the lower bracket assemblies for 20 bucks. I am kinda thinking if I grab the brackets I could mount them to some cheap racing style seats or maybe some seats from an XJ. What you guys think?

definitely get them, you can get 2 or 4 door XJ buckets, and swap them onto the brackets. Its not a very hard process. 2 door buckets are more desirable because they tilt forward :cheers:

GRAB THEM! They are more rare than rocking horse poop. They will bolt right on the any XJ buckets up to 1993. :cheers:

your bench has the same floor brackets (but only half the slider). so if you're going to snag them, make certain the sliders are attached. :thumbsup:

Yet another question: I have MJ bucket brackets... the straight kind.

I have the opportunity to pick up some XJ 2-door buckets (1989) in really good condition.

However, they appear to be the rounded "rocker" kind. I don't have the rails from them, just the seats.

 

Will they bolt up to my brackets?

I agree. I have yet to see rocking horse poop in good condition. :yes:
