GrayWolf Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 About 6 months ago I posted my Dakota seat project in DIY Projects And Tech. Lots of pictures and info. I've received several contacts now asking if I would be willing to build mounts for them. I can't, but I have a friend, who helped me with my set, and he indicated that if there was sufficient interest he would be willing to build them for about $150, plus shipping. Just looking for interest right now. If there is enough interest, we'll pull my seat and make templates for him to start production. He seems more interested in completed mounts, but I've also raised the subject of doing kits for a little less money and you do the welding. Let me know!!

GrayWolf Posted January 2, 2018 Author Share Posted January 2, 2018 Late 90's, early 2000, 40/20/40 seats fit right in. Mine are 1998, and were in an extended cab, so they don't tilt forward, but they slide forward enough for easy access. Seats from a standard cab would be better, but these were in such good shape and the color matched my interior perfectly! I paid $60 for the set.

87Chief Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Interested, send me a pm and your email, I have some questions about my dakota seats (want to know if they are the same as yours) mine is from a 99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose_XJ88 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I think that a partially built kit would be a great option. Everything welded together except for the long leg. It would minimize work for the end welder and still ship in a smaller box than a fully assembled kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still interested either way, but to save on shipping and time, I think this would be best option for most. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INjake89mj Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 How is the leg room? I had late model XJ buckets in another Comanche, and had very little head room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrayWolf Posted January 14, 2018 Author Share Posted January 14, 2018 I know that Comanche seat mounts are different than Cherokee, but are all Comanche seat mounts the same??? Didn't think about that before, Kinda self centered! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't think about that before, Kinda self centered! Yes, all Comanche seats mounts are the same. These brackets should fit any MJ. The XJ seats had to be made to fit.

87Warrior Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Yes. I will buy a set. These are much cleaner than the mess I cobbled together for the Dakota bench. Take my money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrayWolf Posted January 17, 2018 Author Share Posted January 17, 2018 ******I talked to Bob and he will be able to make up templates next week. He's pretty quick once he starts a project so I will get with everybody when he's ready to take a day and either weld, or not weld, depending on your preference. I'll also give everybody a final cost, plus shipping. Thanks for the great response, I know you'll be as happy as I was1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnkyboy Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 They look nice but they seem like they sit really high, I set my Dakota seats several inches lower and they still sit pretty high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
