1971 rear seat info

Can someone post a detailed picture of what the rear seat and bracket looked like from the dealer. This for my 1971 resto project.

Thanks Julius

I have one. Is in storage ,will have to dig it out . e-mail me at ellyrac1@esagelink.com and I'll send pictures when I get it out. They were made by Whitco.

 

Why not just post up the pictures here, for everyone's benefit? No need to embed if you can't figure that out - instead link to the album.

If you have a Whitco seat, it's aftermarket. The Jeep factory option seat came from Jeep, and was delivered with the vehicle.

This is the best picture I could find -

The seat brackets are made of flat stock, and slide under plates bolted to the floor. There is a spring-loaded pin at the back of the brackets that locks in to the plate on the floor.

 

I am not sure if mine is factory or not. It has 2 mounts forward that go through the floor and act as pivots. The rear has a quick release to allow it to fall forward.

 

Was the removable rear seat used on the R II?
No tailgate....

 

Yes and was the one that Tim talked about made out of flat plate and spring loaded pins

 

Wyomike and timgr I just bought one that is the same as the picture timgr posted. I also have the brackets with the spring loaded pins. I think I am set. I also picked up the original speedometer with zero miles on it. NOS.

 

I do have a R II, no taligate. I can take the seat out pretty easily.
I can get pics if needed.

 

Flat bar at front that slides under a floor mounted bracket.


Pin with spring at rear. This pin goes through hole in tub.

 

Nice Pielut thanks for the Pics.
