I've been following discussions for awhile but haven't seen much in the way of pics. So I snapped a few so people could get an idea of what's involved:
First get yourself some ZJ seats from the PNP yard. This one came out of a 96 Grand Cherokee with some front end damage
The ZJ seats have much better lumbar support and the foam is a lot better. My stock seats are beat and feel terrible.
Next undo the 4 13mm bolts that hold the mounts to the rails. You can look under the seat and see what they look like, they're the only bolts on the underside.
The circled areas show where the respective rails are mounted. The ZJ uses the inner more mounting holes, but they're already drilled and therefore able to accept the XJ rails.
Here are the stock XJ brackets and rails on the ZJ seat:
And finally everything mounted up. There are no clearance issues and it fits like it was meant to be there (and should have been). It does sit a little higher than the stock seats but it doesn't bother me even at 6'2". The added support and cushion is well worth it.
