RUGGED RIDGE IS-53420.09 Suzuki Samurai Replacement Seats

Product Information

Product Name: Suzuki Samurai Replacement Seats
Model Number: IS-53420.09
Manufacturer: Rugged Ridge
Description: The Rugged Ridge Suzuki Samurai replacement seats are designed as a direct bolt-in replacement for old worn-out original seats. They are compatible with the existing hardware and seat mounting brackets.
Seat Protection: To protect the seats from stains and UV rays, it is recommended to apply a water repellent treatment regularly. Please note that neither Rugged Ridge nor OMIX-ADA supply such fabric treatment.

Product Usage Instructions

**Step 1:** Remove the original seats from the factory mounting brackets. If needed, refer to a Suzuki shop manual for assistance. Ensure that all original factory seat mounting hardware is retained as it will be reused later for installing the Rugged Ridge replacement seats.
Step 2: Inspect all factory hardware to ensure they are in good condition. Visually examine all mounting brackets for cracks or elongated mounting holes that could compromise the strength of both the seat and the bracket. If any damage is found, it is recommended to find replacements before proceeding.
Step 3: Place both seats onto the mounting brackets to ensure that the seat mounting holes align correctly. In some cases, it may be easier to mount seat brackets to the seats first and then reinstall them onto the body tube. Install the hardware and tighten according to the factory torque settings. Refer to Image #1 for visual guidance.
Step 4: After installation, inspect the seats to ensure that all brackets and bolts have been reinstalled properly. Verify that all seat functions work correctly. If adjustment is required for the passenger seat release cable, the side cover can be removed, and the cable length can be adjusted as shown in Image #2.
