I have recently inherited a 1957 CJ5 from my Dad. It does not have a rear
seat and I have posted requests for an original one just about anywhere I can
find on the net.
I have had several people say they have a seat that "will fit". If I am going
to all this trouble, I would like to get a proper one.
How will I know if it is the right seat? Are the military ones the same as
the civilian ones (other than upholstery?) Can anyone point me to books or
diagrams that show the proper seat and the correct mounting hardware?
Am I crazy to think I can find one?
I will bring the car back from New York in a few weeks and the first thing I
will do is have the brake fluid flushed (see I'm learning already) .
By the way, subject to Federal Law J-55692 CFR 15, it IS a requirement that
upon purchasing any Air compressor equipment that you are indeed required to
purchase at least three accessories within 30 days. (You have a full year
before you have to buy more) I have made my wife aware of this requirement
several times.
