Front flip seats for FSJ Cherokee

Post by supergeess »

Hi All,
Seeing if anyone has found a good solution for front flip seats allowing better access tot he rear of a 2 door Cherokee? I read on the other forum that front seats from a 99 era Dodge Dakota (non crew cab) will work. Id anyone has pictures, can you please share?

I have heard of people using dakato bench seats as they are the right width, but I don't think they have any special flip functionality. Just the typical truck ability to tilt forward to access behind them.

I think you would be better off looking into the TJ seat setup. When the seat folds down, and then moves forward.

I have early 2000 dakota seats in my J10. Get the ones in the 'cab and a half' not the 4 door. The backs flip forward and have the lever on the side and also one towards the top in the back, so the back seat people can flip it forward. They bolt directly to the bucket seat brackets in the full size jeeps.

Let me know if you want pics.
