2WD XJ Laredo Seats

[HOrnbrod]

WOO-HOOO! Made a great score at a strange yard today. Was returning from a trip down south of home in my MJ on the back roads, and spotted a 2-door 1990 Cherokee Laredo in a yard I'd never been in before. Slammed on the brakes and cruised in. The XJ had a blown engine, not wrecked, had 95K on the clock, and the interior was absolutely perfect. 2-door Laredos are RARE, and I've been looking for seats from an XJ Laredo for a long time. Ended up getting the two front buckets, the dash bezel, and the overhead console for $75. I have the 4-door Laredo seats in my rig now, and it's a major PITA because I can't fold the seat backs forward to access the back space. Sometimes life is good..............

Nice find Don....I have a set of AMC-era black buckets from a 4 door XJ waiting to go into mine. I wish they had the fold-down option, but all black buckets (to match my interior) are as rare as hen's teeth down here, so I grabbed them about 6 months ago from the 'yard when I saw them. They're resting comfortably under the house for now, 'till I get up the gumption to actually put them in ;)

Hey Jeff;

 

My normal Jeep-specialty yard has several wrecked XJs w. the early black buckets. Might even be some early MJs w. black buckets too. Don't remember the details because I was not looking for black, but I did see several. They never crush MJs in this yard since most of the help are MJ freaks. Next time I'm up there I'll check it out. It's nice to have the seat back fold option to store your junk. Don

Haha, I know a guy who got 4 door seats to replace busted ones in his 2 door cherokee. He never even thought of it untill the old seats were already gone to the dump!! :thwak:

Mine's an '87 too. The black interior was an AMC thing :D The buckets I have waiting to go in are the same pattern as Joe's bench pictured above, checkerboard cloth wrapped with black vynil

 

Exterior paint is red over rust.... :chillin:
