Not a topic I've seen much action on here; anyone running aftermarket seats? I can't lift my jeep yet as its too tough for my 6 year old girl to get in and out of so I'm looking to do other upgrades right now.

I considered aftermarket, several guys I know have mastercraft and they like them. I chose to add a firmer foam to my seats and put webbing underneath for better support, They feel a lot better now :thumb: 2010 JKU

I had Corbeau seats for my YJ, but returned them. Couldn't find a comfy position for them height wise. I'll probably go with something like the mastercraft or prp seats eventually.

I currently have Mastercraft Pro4 in my JK. I don't have any pics atm but I will post some later. I've also had Mastercraft Baja RS in my Cj7 and also Corbeau Baja RS. The corbeaus Baja RS are nice but the mastercrafts are a lot better quality and more supportive imo. I also did read that the reclining lever in some of the corbeaus would fail and reclining on their own at times, not sure if they've fixed it since. I do plan on getting the Mastercraft Baja RS for my JK eventually.
Here are some pics of them in my old jeeps

Any info on how you did that? I checked your profile and didn't see a build thread or anything. I appreciate any info!

I took it to a local upholstery shop and had them do the work. They cut out some of the old foam and inserted 2" firmer foam and webbed the seat was only $80/seat

Know of anyone who put in bride seats? That's the route I want to take.

A place in Raleigh called Tops & Trends is a Katzkin dealer & comes recommended by a friend with a body shop. I'll scope em out.

Probably won't see many guys running bride seats in their jeep. They're usually for car racing applications I would imagine getting some to fit in the jeep would probably take a good amount of work. Also I'd imagine they would be horribly uncomfortable off road since they're not meant for it

I would not want to climb over that side bolster everyday lol:shock:
I thought the same thing but it's not bad. Added a 4 point harness too so it's not a quick in or out but I don't worry about moving when I'm in it. I still have to do measurements for the passesngers side as I want to put the larger seat size there but I don't know if it will clear the center console.
