    OK, I currently don't have the rear seat, and I'm not too worried about putting in a stock '73 CJ5 rear seat.
    My question is, I've heard you can use the seat out of ,say, an early Caravan. Anybody have any other ideas, comments, criticisms? (OK, maybe not criticisms. :))
    (Maybe I should have done a search, but I wanted fresh ideas.)

    no personal knowledge of that seat
    I suppose as long as it's narrow enough to fit between the wheelwells, and you can bolt it in or fab brackets to bolt it in, almost any seat will work.

    Seems like Tumbleweed has mentioned that one -and they cut the latches and hinges out of the van floor and transplanted them too.

    aha... That's right! I knew I had seen it somewhere. IIRC, it was the middle seat that was used.
    Thanks, Mike.

    OK, so I did do a search after all.
