schardein Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I've got the rocker bases in my XJ and a spare set. Can't remember details, but after much consideration I decided they couldn't be adapted to MJs. At least not without major surgery. 84-86 buckets will mount to MJ bases. Whether they fold forward just depends on if they came from a 2 door XJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 The 84-86 seats are the same as later models to 94 and they have the best fabric patterns (IMO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saveevryjp1998 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Thats good to know, thanks, especially since there is at least one person that like those ugly seats too. I love em. I got excited when I found the clean pumkin orange interior in an 84 xj wagoneer. I hope to get the dash eventually too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you find 4 dr seats with the upholstery/color you want in good shape, get them. When you find compatible 2 dr buckets, the upholstery might be trashed or wrong color, and you can swap the 4 dr covers on! Then you just have to cut a slit for the tilt forward lever. So you are really looking for two things- compatible seats frames and good upholstery. They don't have to come from the same donor. I didn't even think about that. Surely there are some decent seats at my local pull-a-part, or whatever yard. Thanks again for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
