Default Do Grand Cherokee ZJ Seats fit Cherokee XJ

Anyone ever fit ZJ Seats in an XJ? The leather seats in my 90 are beyond beat, actually look like a lion shredded them. I like the ZJ's seats but am not sure if theyll bolt right up. Anyone do a seat swap or will I be drilling holes in the floor?

ha thats funny... i JUST pulled some WJ leather seats and took measurements and it looks like with new holes drilled in the floors the back seats will work real easily... was more worried about fabing the front... but not anymore!! lol

Default Hell yes...

Yep. Looking for a cheap wrecked ZJ myself. My jeep got this p.o.s. out of date ABS actuator pump that doesnt work for sht. The brakes have no booster and are controlled by this pump so its like I have manual brakes. The part is around $500-$1000 so Im lookin to swap it out to a non ABS brake booster. Plus I need the damn seats... lookin for a total wreck... something rear ended bad for a couple hundred. The junkyard is a budget jeep mechanics best friend...

Since im here i might as well ask.......i have a 97 XJ, will the ZJ grand cherokee seats bolt right up to my factory mounting bracket? or do i have to fab somethin up? And also would it make the people that sit in the back seat have less leg room? there already isn't much room back there which is why im asking? Thanks
