: : What other rear seat will fit in the back of the CJ2A? Anyone have any luck fitting anything else in there. All the catalogues and webpages that supply rear seats never seem to give the width.

: : Any ideas... other than buying new/repro or making one, which isn't out of the question yet.

: : Thanks

: Bob,
: The early jeep station wagon seats can be made to fit and early schoolbus passenger seats could also work.Good luck

Bob-
I've got a '46 2a. I went to a junkyard and found a oldersyle rollbar (yea!) and I also needed a rear seat but couldn't find an original type. I picked up a later model seat out of a CJ5 or 7 not sure now. I measured it and it looked like it would fit. It has the seatbelts atached to it too (bonus). Also got lucky, it was in a hardtop model so it hadn't been exposed to weather. Brought it home and the legs on it even fit thegrooves on the floor. Now if you want the exaact 2a seat you're gonna pay dearly. They want a fortune at most of the places I've checked and that's frame only. Take your measurements to the junkyard and good luck.
