Lurch Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Is this worth trying to fix? I'm not sure how to go about fixing it because the foam is glued to the metal and I'm sure the foam would just burn if I tried to weld it. Are the seat pans in the MJ/XJ the same? If so it is easy enough to find one at the junkyard since all I need is the actual seat pan. Truck is a '92 with buckets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
64 Cheyenne Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Yup. My friend put the right side pan on the left, and vice-versa, correcting visible entry/exit compression in the foam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 New XJ/MJ bucket seat pans are still available - expensive though............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser54 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Doesn't work. Get a pan off the passenger seat of an 84 to 90 or so XJ in the junkyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottJeep Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Well I've done the swap. Works. Have verified the pan is still available. VERY Expen$ive. Have also kept a wet rag in one hand while my buddy welded the booger all back up and while ugly. Works fine also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 The drivers side seat pan gets roached out over time due to all the toxic gas that passes through. Especially in Cruiser's vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spicy vegan diet. The propellant and added toxic gasses erode the aluminum bucket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91Pioneer Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Hornbrod, your seat pans are chrome now aren't they? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurch Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 Found a '91 XJ in the junkyard with a pretty cherry interior, $12 for the seat. Bam, done.

Unfortunately I made the mistake of washing to seat cover before I put it back on and it's much cleaner looking (and better smelling) than the rest of the seat. :ack: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
