Hey Jim - any other issues or concerns other than some discoloration/staining, and the torn fabric on one of the buckets? thinking something like the front buckets for the wagon, and I will need to fab up some brackets - these could be a good starting spot. Throw some seat covers on them and go with it for a while, and/or could always replace with aftermarket at some point as YJ stuff is common and my homemade brackets would not need to be modified.

The front seats are rigid - non reclining / non fold forward. No mechanical / frame issues. Primary issue is cosmetic - and maybe a very slight issue of left hip sitting on seat frame / no cushion. It was not a reason to replace the seat but could be one item beyond cosmetic.
If you're interested, and are looking to make a frame, I'll add this into the pot - one slide mechanism. It has a broken mount - but is complete - just needs some welding.
If nutt'n else - the v-Belts might be usable for ya!
Bump.
Any interest James? Anyone else?
No reply I'll put'm up on Craigslist Free for a week - then dumpster.
The slider bracket is kind of interesting for future set frame build....did you replace just the one broken one along with the seats - or was it only on the driver side to begin with? Guessing they are available aftermarket....

Each seat has a slide. I purchased used via eBay the one side. A simple weld should get that slide into good condition.
It doesn't sound like you're interested in the front seats - I'll post'm up for a wider audience.
go ahead and post them.....I've got some dedicated jeep project time coming up in another month or two, but going to start with the cj first, and the wagon is still a slow project. If the seat frame slider goes with the seats, that is fine...I would take the seat slider if it doesn't. In other words, I'll take it before you scrap it....Most old jeeps only have slider adjustment on the driver side anyway and bet its easier to modify that one than to make all new one.
