Replacement rear seat options

[JWMcCrary]

I want to replace my stock rear seat with one that is more comfortable. Not concerned with fold and tumble, just needs to fit the stock location without giving up any more room between the seat back and tailgate. I've searched but the results provide too much to weed thru. Pics would be great, along with any other opinions or suggestions. My front seats are black procar elite, as long as I can get it in black not too concerned about exact matching.

The rear sets out of the Jeep YJ and Tj wranglers are pretty good. You can find them cheap on craigslist. I just got one that looks like new for $50. If its not the color you want, you can always get a fitted cover for it from one of the Jeep sites (quadrotech, etc.)

Thanks.
I was hoping to get feedback on some of the seats from the vendors. In my searches I found a few threads that mention jeep seats, may see what I can find

I have a Toms flip n fold and like it because it has no armrests and can get 3 kids in the seat. The fold part is a plus,it folds flat against the front seats.

Here is my Corbeau suspension seat, its the 40" model. I built the base to lift it off of the floor and really works slick. I have since built a few of these bases for other members as well, it gives a great spot to mount an amp up and out of the weather. I think with this type of bracket you could squeeze a 42" seat really easy.

same here, and does it line up with the original seat mounting holes in the floor?

That was exactly what I wanted to make sure of. The base sits down in the rib of the bed right over the factory mounting holes.

To date I still liked my Colt Vista Wagon rear seat. Yes it was a split bench that rolled and tumbled had headrests and mine had sliders and built in seat belts although the second half of the belt needed another attachment I had it on my cage and no armrest to take up room and yes fit perfectly in between the wells. They are starting to get hard to find, I have to make it a point to salvage a few when they appear at the boneyard for future use. They are especially suited if you have a full cage and integrate the mounting with under seat spanners from side to side. I was and am a proponent of the rear and if possible front headrests, which these have. Pull at the price that they can be had you can splurge and have them custom upholstered to match you front/s. On the same note the middle seat off that same vehicle makes a great front seat with pretty much all the same functions as the rearmost seat.Only thing is to have to do a bit of chopping on the mounting legs to get a low enough position so you don't hit overhead bars if any.

his writeup on the colt vista seat. My pictures were lost years ago. I can't remember if I sold him that seat or not as I sold 5 of them and at least 2 where sent here in CA. Good Luck..Mo

I built a very similar base for my truck to fit two corbeau ss bucket seats. They sit a little high for adults but I did it for my kids and they fit great.
