So when I had my JKU my kids HATED the rear seats because they didn't recline. Now with the 2dr it's the same problem. Anyone know of a way to swap/make reclinable rear seats.

It could be their spoiled as well by riding in their moms car.

I was thinking about rear buckets, but think they might ride to high...wouldn't really care about folding them down. Like using the passenger seat from a JK in the back..IDEAS?

mastercraft has a bucket seat conversion kit so you can add bucket reclining in the rear - don't know how if they will fold flat.

Maybe you can use the bucket seats out of a 80's-90's Camaro/firebird?

Get a mini van seat. I think they recline.

Cool, thanks man. I don't really care about the folding flat part, just need them to be a little more comfortable for the kids. Teenage girls can get really bitchy when uncomfotable and on a trail

mastercraft would be good pick for seats. Have looked at them, but haven't tried them They make some good looking seats, and if you have $$ you can do the front seats to :beer:

Not sure if these will work for you, but these lool nice to.

another option is to place spacers under the front legs of the bench seat to make it recline back a bit more...have to say after riding in the back seat I wouldn't want to be there much :icon_crazy:

passenger seats in rear

I actually have a buddy who totaled his 2 door and took the seats out before insurance got their hands on the rig. HE got a new 2dr and he put them in the back wih new custom supports so there is no space under the seat. they still sit a tad bit higher but there is a good amount of room before the roof and roll bar. looks really cool too!
