    Yeah, those were the first jump seats I saw when I first started looking at Jeeps online. I fell in love with them instantly. The biggest problem with these particular seats is that they are stationary and do not fold up. The troop seats in Wuze's jeep can fold up out of the way to load equipment in.

    I found some more pics I am going to post up soon.

    yes , safty is terrible but years ago this was standart and with an old car like this you are very defensiv on the street and look always fordward.

    i plan to swap these rear seats for a wide bench (for my 3 boys) like this,
    http://www.racing-seats-usa.com/bajassbench.html
    and with HT mounted i can easy put a 56-58" wide in the jeep.
    i have this not so high fenderwells and so i can put a bench on top.

    and then i can mout a cage for safty:)

    There's nothing safe about these old Jeeps or most vintage iron for that matter, a lot depends on what you do with your Jeep and how crazy you are. I mostly be use them for transport around the property for the kids and at fairs etc. Not planning a lot of Interstate commuting with 6 people in the back in my cj6.:)

    Hi Gerald

    I dont have good pictures of the roll bar.
    Those are the best i found. Hope it will help. Ignore changes in color - they are from different times.
    If you are interested in something special about that roll bar i will take more pictures for you.

    this looks like the rollbar goes behind the seats to the body:?
    but only on the right side:)

    Hi Gerald,

    This roll bar goes to the floor of the body on both sides. Im not sure it is such a good one, but this is what i have.
    If you make your own roll bar it will be better !
