    Have any of you used these model seats? Says they fit early cj's with no drilling. I've always seen nearly all seats fit everything 55+ but need modifications. These read like they are exclusively for early and intermediate cj's.

    The descriptions I find are all geared toward 55 and newer. Could probably be fabbed in pretty easily though

    I bought one about 4 months ago. As advertised, no drilling. A little thicker than the original.

    Good to know. I have some new bestop seat covers I'd still use to cover them, but it's good to know there are simple replacements available to replace my cracked hard vinyl ones. Thanks

    I installed a set last year. The passenger seat fit right in on the factory frame. I can't attest to the driver's side, as I moved the gas tank, did the fender notch, and fabbed an angle iron frame for it. I think they're good seats for the $.

    Got my seats today but I will have to use some strap steel to get them to mount.
