Cherokee seat removal help needed.
 
Well, the government jerks are insisting they are going to steal my 87
Cherokee because I haven't finished doing a needed engine swap to get it
on the road, so I am going to strip it.

It's a 4 door with working power windows if anyone in the Toronto Canada
area wants parts. It has 4 of those 5 spoke Aluminum rims in decent
enough shape.

Got it boxed in real good right now...

Had to call the cops on the government goons on Monday because they
insisted they could go into my garage and steal 'all' it's contents like
my camping and fishing gear, tools, Jeep parts, etc., because the door
was broken open! The cops put a stop to that long enough to get the
door half closed and chase the jerks off.

I asked the cops if it was illegal to paint the one fingered salute on
my garage door for the enjoyment of the new 32 story high rise that just
went in across the street and they said no, it's legal, go ahead. :-)

So enough ranting, I want the nice bucket seats out of the Cherokee for
my CJ7. These are the 87 version of the manual adjust wrap around
buckets and fit me nice.

I can't bend well to get in there and spot all the fasteners and was
hoping someone else knew if I could get the seat track off without
unbolting the whole works from the floor. There are 'sort of' rusty nut
stubs left on the bolts that go into the floor, but it is 'very'
unlikely they will unbolt there.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Mike

Re: Cherokee seat removal help needed.
 
Those four studs you see are probably the best and easiest way to
remove the seats. If you have a Dermel tool you can get your son out
there to cut the studs off, then lift out the seats. I'd stop by and
give you a hand but my ribs are a little cracked (snowboarding with
the kids). If the dremel wont work then try a socket with big breaker
bar and try snapping the studs by over tightening the nuts. Its too
bad i got rid of my XJ last summer, I could have taken parts from both
and made a decent shaped XJ.

P.S. I'm waiting to see the "flip'n the bird" painted garage door
too show up on City Pulse News :)

Thanks, I am going to soak them in PB Blaster and see if my impact gun
can fit on them.

I was going to plate this one, but it needs an engine and complete
clutch system and our daily driver, the engine donor also needs a
complete clutch system.

We thought about it and figured it isn't worth putting $500.00 into
either of these Jeeps for parts right now.

We want to take that and buy one 'with' a working clutch and preferably
intact rockers. Floors I can deal with...

So I will be stripping a second one soon likely too....

Know anyone selling a Jeep?

I'd get me a shotgun with some double 00 buck shots and take care of them
government pricks when they break into the garage. Put no trespassing signs
up.

Hay there Mike.
I just picked up a set of Cherokee seats for my YJ. I just went to the
garage and looked at them. The best way is to unbolt them from the
floor. I got mine still bolted to the frames. And as i see it you have
to go up and under to get them off the track.
The guy i got my seats fro gave me ever thing even the back seat. I
plain on selling ever thing but the front seats on e-bay.

That's a new one to me. Isn't there a way to tag the vehicle as
being not-drivable or under-repair? I can see going after the tag
for lack of insurance, but never heard of the goonsquad going after
a vehicle being repaired. Sure they were legit and not fakes?

I could only tag (plate) it with 'parking' insurance if I already owned
it and it was already plated in my name. Unfortunately that means
emissions and safety first so it has to be a runner.

I am getting my 'money's worth' of parts from it at least.

And ya, they were legit, we live in a 'Very' Snooty city, Toronto
Canada, very British roots. We didn't toss the tea unfortunately...
You must have a 'pretty' house too. The jerkoff even wrote up reports
on some rust on the front step railings and a kid's tree house that has
been there since 92 for being 'too tall'. And he wrote 'us' up for the
neighbor's crooked fence too. I told him to screw off on that one also.

Grrr....I know this has nothing to do with the parting out of the
vehicle, but, in Southern California, I work in an area of
construction where I constantly have to run up against Homeowner's
Associations rules, Neighborhood Covenants, and pretentious city codes
-- and frankly that ---- makes my Yankee blood boil. Hell, my
neighbors here think they own the street.

Can you "register" it as an off-road vehicle? I'm assuming you are
parking off-street.

I'll send a handsome Int'l money order for a nice glossy of your
garage-door-opinion...

Things are tough in Toronto, but much worse in rural Ontario where I

They want Ma and Pa bakeries to submit their recipes with a checque

Sounds like you guys need to succeed from a government under the control of
an unstable socialist foreign power. Consider going toward the light.....

The US can offer substantial tracts of land in exchange for the untainted
portions of Jeepable Canada.

Consider it....
