i am thinking about mounting captins chairs in replace of the bench seat in my xj..does anyone have any pictures of it being done?

thanks

 

Why?.....

 

i hope by captains chairs you mean bucket seats....the xj interior is way too small for captains chairs

 

why not?

 

I can get these seats out of a 94 or 95 grand for super cheap. He says they are in immaculate shape. I hope you dont mind me piggybacking the thread, but these should be useable if I unbolt the grand seat and bolt it to the xj rail, correct? Thanks!


edit: I suppose that I should mention that my jeep is a white 2001 sport with blue/gray interior and black herculiner on the sides. I just put in black husky liners.
Do you think the color clash will be nasty with the stock rear seat? My seats are starting to fray and blow out on the sides. My seats are manual and the grand's seats are electric, but if Im bolting the seat to the xj's rail I dont think I'll have a problem. I thought I'd ask as I've been doing my research and this thread seems relevent.

 

Bench seat? Front?

 

not a bench seat in front, but 4 bucket seats, I have seen it before, but never seen it done.

 

I see I was going to buy the front bench ha ha its on the list...

 

I'm thinking why waste the cash on the rear unless u plan on being a limousine service. Install them in the front instead.

 

i was planning on buying nice offroad seats for the front and getting rid of the back bench seat and seeing if it was possible to put the old front seats into the back

 

It can 100% be done but it takes some fab work, another guy on here did it ill look for a bit and try to find it for you

 

No need to look.... It was me who did it... And I put the bench seat back in...
Yea it was cool for a while but after some time you start to miss being able to fold down your rear seat to haul stuff. You also loose 50% of your view out the back window. And to mount them level and still have a person over 5ft6 in the back they will have no leg room.

From the guy who did it...... Don't waste your time.

 

Thanks that changed my mind lol
