UTV Suspension Seats

    Has any one put suspension seats for a sidexside/utv in your jeep?

    I'm looking at the low back version of Rhino Replacement Seat - PRP Seats.

    Currently I have original seats but would like more bolster/shock absorption and don't want to lose the low-back 'look' or leg/belly room. I have read a few times on this forum that the regular jeep suspension seats are too big/deep to wedge into our little jeeps and thought one for a utv/sidexside would work better.

    Not excited about losing access to underseat tool box, and also thinking the $600 could be better spent toward yj/holbrook springs.

    Most of the time the jeep is doing about 15-20 mph on rough, two-track ranch roads.

    I like the looks of those low backs too, or as mentioned... Mastercraft. I'm happy with my stockers tho... Fine for crushing pavement around town.

    I had Mastercraft seats in my TJ and they where the best seats I have ever used. 8 years and over 100,000 miles on them.

    Looks pretty narrow across the backside. I'd want to sit in one before I bought.

    Not being able to try them (or any of the brands) out first is one of my biggest hurdles, but no one around here stocks them.
    Buying them and hoping they fit the jeep and my rear end is a pretty big gamble.

    Sorry if this is too obvious, but did you call the manufacturer and ask about a local dealer? Looks like PRP seats is the source.

    Mount them on empty beer cans.

    When you hit a big hole, the cans crush. Plus… then you need to empty some new ones.
