Product Information
The IS-SEATS-03 is a suspension seat designed for installation in the 1976 – 2002 CJ and Wrangler models. It includes components such as the seat, plastic covers for the left and right sides, a recliner knob, and an air pump with hose. The seat is equipped with additional restraint slots for use with racing harnesses.
Product Usage Instructions
- Firmly press the plastic cover to the side of the metal seat recliner bracket for each side.
- Place the recliner knob over the recliner shaft and press firmly. Repeat for the other side.
- Double-check to ensure that the covers and knobs are securely attached before proceeding with seat installation.
- Remove the old seat from the riser by removing the 4 bolts. Save these bolts as they will be reused later.
- Remove the sliders from the old seats by removing the 4 bolts. Save these bolts as they will be reused later. To access the rear 2 bolts, push the slider arm down and move the slider forward.
- Place the sliders onto the new seats and reuse spacers from the old seat to align the slider.
- Fasten the slider to the new seat using the 4 bolts saved from step 5.
- Carefully place the slider back onto the seat riser and fasten it with the 4 bolts saved from step 4.
- With the seat installed, route the air hose and air pump under the seat and to the front left or right corner of the seat.
- Use the Velcro straps provided on the left and right side of the seat to mount the air pump. For the driver’s side, it is recommended to place it on the right side of the seat (inboard). For the passenger side, use the left side of the seat. This positioning ensures that the air pump will not be hit when entering or exiting the vehicle.
- To add air to the lower lumbar support, close the air valve screw and pump the air bladder. Do not overinflate. To release air and adjust for comfort, unscrew the air valve and bleed out air until the desired setting is achieved.
Note: If installing a seat belt other than an OE design, it is the user’s responsibility to follow the seat belt manufacturer’s installation instructions. The owner is also responsible for the proper placement of shoulder harnesses.
