Default 1989 Jeep Cherokee XJ Front Seat

Well I have power seats on my XJ and they are breaking apart. Cheap welding or just old seats, but what other seats will fix in an 89 XJ. The junk yards down here don't have anything this old anymore. Even if I have to modify, but what other seats are the same height and width?

You can get just the cushions. Grab them from the passenger side.

Here's what happens to them.

Swap your upholstery over. Super easy to do.

On power seats all the metal frame is falling apart. I need the whole seat.

I used to have a 1996 Cherokee. When I got it the mounts were broken on one side and it was sitting on a brick (definitely not DOT recommended). I got Grand Cherokee seats from a 1999 (I think) and swapped the rails with my Cherokee seats. They became bolt in replacements. Only problem was I had a 2D Cherokee and the Grand Cherokee was 4D, seats didn't lean forward much to get into the back. Didn't bother me because my back seat was folded flat 90% of the time.
