Jeep Cherokee XJ Seats

Turn your Jeep Cherokee XJ into an off-road racing machine with pulse-pounding, adrenaline-boosting bucket seats. At Morris 4x4, we stock a huge variety of high-performance aftermarket bucket seats for Jeeps. It’s easy to find custom seats that match your Cherokee’s interior vibe whether you’re looking for jet black or cool gray.

Should You Upgrade Your Jeeps Seats?

The stock front seat for XJ models dates back 30–40 years. It’s not surprising that factory seats aren’t the most comfortable. They lack many features that modern bucket seats deliver, from improved performance to better back support. Upgrading your Jeep’s OEM seats with aftermarket models offers many advantages, especially from trusted off-road brands such as Rugged Ridge.

Many drivers replace stock seats for Jeep Cherokee XJ models as part of restoration. After decades of use or storage, interior fabric can crack, making an otherwise awesome ride look pretty beat up.

Benefits of Bucket Seats

Bucket seats are also known as Jeep racing seats. They’re popular with drivers looking to squeeze every ounce of horsepower and torque from the engine while navigating tricky tracks.

Unlike normal front seats, bucket seats fit your body like a glove and let you customize the position of your back, head, arms and legs at all times. That way, you have the responsiveness you need for tight turns.

People who love road trips also benefit from bucket seats. They maximize your off-road comfort and provide excellent neck support.

How To Install Aftermarket Jeep Seats

The installation process for bucket seats isn’t overly complicated in the Jeep Cherokee XJ, provided your floor pan is in good shape. You just need to unbolt the previous front seats, remove them, and bolt in the new Jeep replacement bucket seats. The process is easier if you slide the seats all the way forward first for quick access to the bolts.

Apply penetrating spray to all bolts beforehand to loosen any rust and avoid breaking the posts. If your Jeep’s floor pan is severely rusted, install a new one before moving to the bucket seats. We carry a full range of replacement parts for Cherokee XJ models, including front and rear floor pans. Get the parts you need right away.
