    Hello Jeepers!

    I'm restoring a '55 CJ-5 and looking to install an original or an accurate reproduction back seat. It's my understanding that the original back seats had springs in them and were of similar construction to the original front seats. Any images, specifications or sources would be greatly appreciated!

    I too have been keeping an eye out for a rear seat for my 59. They are almost non existent anywhere close to me. So I say to you... Good luck. And if you find 2, keep me in mind :)

    Just how things work, I have 3 back seats that I will never use and none of them are correct for your vehicle.

    Thanks for the link... i am well adversed at the many styles and changes of CJ rear seats, and CJ's themselves for that matter :)

    I was curious what the gent above has tucked away :)
