Procar elite lumbar seats

I wish I had some input, but I am in the same boat as you: looking for good seats. Did you see these...
Pro-90

Dimensions make it look like the Pro-90 won't sit too high. Both have great looks that I think would go well in an EB. Not sure if anyone has used them, or if they are what you are looking for.

There was a thread recently where a member went to 4 wheel parts and they had a large selection of seats and could test them all out by sitting in them. Not sure if they have those but might wanna look around and see if there is somewhere or someone you know that has them and you can sit in them first hand and maybe a few other seats so that you can figure out what feels best for you.

I had the Procar Rally seats when I got my Bronco. I thought they were super comfortable and they mounted low. They were pretty beat up so I replaced with some Mastercrafts. Hindsight I should have just had them reupholstered

Pro 90 looks really nice. I love my Pro Cars, very comfortable --- mine are the Rally's that have side bolsters that are just too high, your first one looks similar without the high side bolsters...can take some better pics if you prefer.
The reference to sitting in actual seats are from the Wild Horses store in Lodi, i was just there last week they have Corbeau, Mastercraft, and ProCars in store.
Nice thing about ProCars is that they sit lower than many of the other brands and keep somewhat of a "stock-ish" appearance that still roughly matches the stock back seat.

I don't like the seat bolsters. I don't like being restricted with my legs being tucked closed and my balls being squished. I like the leg room. I like the back bolsters.

Here is a thread on the same subject that I started a while back.
http://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=275797
Some good feedback but I am holding off on seats until I get some other stuff sorted out.
Good luck

I've got the Pro Car Rally 2000's shown above.
Installed them in '04???
Anyway, they wear well. I have not been kind to them.
I understand Blu,
They "are" over bolstered. But I just spent 14 hours one way going to SuperCel in them.
If that doesn't test a seat I don't know what will.
And while they are a "bitch" to get in and out of, once you are in them They support you very well.
The bolsters on the bottom are far enough back that they don't force your legs together and squeeze your nuts&bolt, lol.
Overall I'd rank them an A on an A to F scale.
But if you want real comfort Blu there is really only one seat genre you should look into,
Reclining suspension seats.
There is just no comparison to non-suspension seats.
"I" was the one that posted that thread about seats at 4 Wheel Parts Center.
Out of the 5 or 6 choices the Corbeau reclining suspension seat stood out above all of the rest. Most of the big names were there. The Corbeau's were not the most expensive either.
Definitely worth looking into for real comfort. I will find the thread and post it here.

Met a fella at SuperCel that had them.
He and his wife loved them.
He had only one complaint. He couldn't recline them all the way because they were so wide they hit his roll bar.

The Pro-90's are probably a great Bronco-fitting seat. That is if the driver is not too big. At least in the leg department.
They are rather small compared to most others. They have a great "feel" to them, but were just too small for me when I would sit in them. Don't know if we at WH have sold many/any to Bronco owners, but I've never heard any feedback if we have.
The Rally's are great from a comfort standpoint, as mentioned. But I too feel they're definitely too high on the sides with those tall bolsters. At least for most EB owners on the street.
If you're getting in and out a lot around town, or have a spouse or sig-nif-o, or kids that are still small, they definitely make things a challenge. Kids might love climbing, but not all the time.
Of the Procar seats, the Elite is the best fitting for me in an EB.
I definitely like the Corbeau seats, and I think the Baja Reclinder is one of our best sellers. It's not a huge seat, but it does have some girth to it that might interfere with certain cages and such. But for me it just sits to high. Not as much as some others, but higher than the Elites.
Never had a Pro-90 in a Bronco (only sold them to Jeep folks back in the day), so can't speak about them from Bronco experience. But it's still an option if you've got a smaller frame. It's super comfy and does not take up as much footprint as some others, but the base was just too short for my long legs.
It's great to be able to sit in them first. Only way to know for sure. But if that's not in the cards, then we should all put our stats in our comments as well. I'm 6'3" 195 and most of it's in my legs (the height anyway. The bulk of the weight is somewhat higher...;D).
Still tall enough in the torso that I'm feeling strange sitting in the stock seats of my '68 with my shoulders above the seat back, but take the fit of the seat bases the most seriously.
My current fave is the older Mustang GT seats. But second fave is the Procar Elite.
Just sat in the most comfortable seat I've ever had the pleasure to meet. But being in a fancy-ass Lexus sports car, they're probably too tall to see out the windshield anyway. And I'm not likely to find an affordable set in the junkyard anytime soon!

I have owned the "Pro Car" Rally 2000's for over a decade now. Excellent seat. But they are no suspension seat.
A suspension seat is a completely different kettle of fish.
All suspension seats are superior to non-suspension seats, IMHO.
The Corbeau's I mention above and the subject of the attached thread, are the best seat I have put my but in yet.
The cool thing about them was they were not the most expensive.
In that attached thread we made sure we found links to that specific Corbeau so that everybody would know what we were talking about.
