Seat Bracket Power to Manual

[JeepFanactic]

Looking at 2 door seats today.  Are the brackets on power XJ seats interchangeable with manual seats.  Also are the seats able to recline manually or are they power also.  Is it better to look for manual seats.

 

Thanks

What year seats are you referring to ? If they are both the 93 and older seats the brackets will change over and the newer and older seats recline manually.

It'll be a chore to upgrade to power seats '-86-'94 style seats. The '95+ seats as mentioned power to manual is easy. It's just a seat track swap, though you will need to adapt the seat track/ floorboard to accomodate the newer style seats. For what it's worth, the older bucket seats are a hell of a lot more comfortable than the newer ones. I daily drive an '01 XJ with heated leather seats and they are no where near as comfortable to me as the older XJ/ MJ bucket seats.

I got seats out of a 2 door 89 XJ that are power.   Is it possible to remove the power brackets and put in manual brackets from a 93 XJ and below.  

 

 

Thanks
