Jaime Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 Hello Can anybody tell me if the bench seat from a 92 will fit in my 88. I had someone weld my brackets from my old branch seat on to a Dakota seat and I’m not pleased with it at all. Thank You
89 MJ Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 It should fit. @krustyballer16 would probably know for sure. He even makes repop seat brackets if you needed some.
87Chief Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 What did you not like about the Dakota seats?Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
Jaime Posted January 8, 2020 Author Posted January 8, 2020 Thanks and excuse my ignorance but what is a repop bracket.
87Chief Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 He makes new seat brackets for our comanches. You can weld them to any seat you want or an original bench seat.Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
krustyballer16 Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 All bench seats will work in all years, theyrr not all the same (some had headrests, some had cutouts for floor shifters) but they all fit the same.As for my brackets, if you wanna mount an mj bench back in and the brackets are rusted or gone, I make new ones...Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
Jaime Posted January 8, 2020 Author Posted January 8, 2020 The seat sits way to high, Graywolf said with his longer legs it made it driving easier to drive but I’m 5’9” so I have to sit closer to steering wheel to fully engage the clutch. It’s also is harder to get in and out of truck and now the rear view mirror creates a blind spot.
Jaime Posted January 8, 2020 Author Posted January 8, 2020 My original bench seat is toast. I was basically sitting in a hole. So I thought that the colder seats would be a good upgrade. What the welder did was remove my brackets and weld them to the new seat. But today I found another Comanche in the junkyard with a Bench seat but that also has to be reupholstered
89 MJ Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 9 hours ago, Jaime said: Thanks and excuse my ignorance but what is a repop bracket. Reproduction brackets. Repop is just a shorter word. If you want his brackets, they will be in the classifieds under vendors.
derf Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 You won't find "repop" in a regular dictionary. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Repop
Jaime Posted January 8, 2020 Author Posted January 8, 2020 Thank you. I guess the only thing I need to decide is what is more cost effective. Get the junk yard seat and have it reupholstered or separate the Dakota seat and have new brackets made. I just don't know if I'll like the center piece sitting higher than the seats and still not be able to use the cup holder in the center section.
