Default new to forum, have cherokee ?'s

Hi, I just joined and have a few questions about my cherokee that i thought somebody here might be able to help me with.

I have a 2 door that I purchased with 4 door seats that dont fold down. Are there any aftermarket seats I could use, as I havent been able to find anything used or in scrapyards. Its a real PITA with these seats as I cant get into the back seat at all.

another question I had is about my tires and lift. When I bought the vehicle I noticed the tires were rubbing the frame when I made extremem left or right turns. I installed 1.25" spacers on the wheels to alleviate this. Is there any downsides to using the spacers to clear my frame?

about my cherokee its a 99 2 door sport. It has a 4.5" lift, stock 31" tires, warn rear bumper/tire carrier, PIAA fog lights, front grill, yakima cargo rack, K&N intake.


thanks in advance, i look forward to hanging out!

Welcome to CF from Deep South Texas As to the seats there are some from Mastercraft but I think they are adaptable to the Cherokee but originally intended for the CJ/TJ/YJ crowd.
BTW where in Ga are you from? I used to live in Marietta.
