Got my USB charger installed in the place of the 12v outlet. Was a bit of a b!tch opening up the hole, but nothing a hot razor and a file couldn't fix. Also got the back mostly packed and did a test fit with the kayak up top. Can't wait to hit the road Friday morning.

Haven't posted due to the app doing some odd stuff but anyway installed some ZJ rear seats still have drivers side to go. Took out the crappy stock shift linkage and got a Boostwerks linkage but I'm a little confused because the shift tab I got looks like this














Seat backs and cushions





Seat backs first installed

Shift tab I got maybe better design???

Where as the one in the picture looks like this...

Used it!





I was 9th in line in a group of 10, after two days of rain and no fender flares. Had to stop and wash the windshield three times by hand! Took 3 days to wash all the mud off!

Of course, I was lucky, this is what happened to a buddy of mine!





Got winched out out of a hole...





And was missing the tire!

No they don't bolt right up you have to constantly take the seats in and out to test fit but you have to drill holes and all that good stuff, there's tons of write ups on it. But the seats I pulled from Pick N Pull from a Grand Cherokee.

Looks like you did a great job regardless. Definitely going to look into this. Thanks for sharing.

^ This statement refers to the Front seats. ZJ seats also fit my 1996.
