Love those corbeau. Id actually like to raise my seats im 5'7 and Christine is 5'5 i dont think it would hurt either of us to have seats be a few inches taller.
Been eyeing ebay seats. Would fab brackets after setting seats on ocks to figure out heights

Well, the main reason for changing is I have no way to fab a bracket up myself, and the bases off my original seats were very rusted (the vehicle isn't, the seats were pulled from a junkyard/didn't match the jeep). and I tried to modify the corbeau brackets to fit the ebay seats. then I sat in them, and realized that they were not very comfortable. Hard stiff foam, but not much of it, fine for short trips, but a day off road, bouncing around? they would be back breaking. The Bajas are suspension seats, meaning they use straps vs metal springs, and so are significantly more comfortable to just sit in and should be way better for an off road trip. Their fit into the jeep though... they kinda don't, I made a video about it:
Would have been similar issues with the ebay seat, the corbeau was either narrower or nearly the same width at the base. (this was months ago.

XJ seat question.
I’m looking to swap in early seats into a 96 Cherokee. Has anyone done this. If you could point me in the direction of any info it would be very much appreciated.
those are the seats. And that’s the Jeep.
