1995/96 Seats in 1987
Will seats from a 1995/96 xj with the new brackets fit the brackets of a 1987 xj? In other words, can I take the 95s off it’s bracket and put it on pre-95 xj seat bracket. If so, is it direct fit?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Nope. Not that easy. Seats are way different than the newer stuff. I swapped in ZJ seats into my 90 XJ. The ZJs are the same pattern as the later XJs, I can assure you they didn't fit my old seat mounts. I made custom brackets to fit the ZJ seats to the older floor pan. Was a royal PITA. That's option one, option two is to modify the older floor pan by welding in the newer floor pan braces. Not sure which way would be a bigger PITA. Good luck.
Side note. See you are also in NC. Where are you located? I'm about 5 miles outside Elizabeth City. If you wanna come by and look at my 90, I can walk you through what I did.
