Rear seat won't fold forward
Hi Gang,
Just bought my first Jeep... 2000 TJ; nothing modified or altered. Happy so far, but I cannot figure out how to flip the rear seat forward. The top section folds down no problem, but the driver's side seems to be attached to the floor and won't budge. The manual says just flip it forward, but no go for me.
Anyone who knows the obvious magic words I'm missing please fill me in,
Thanks in advance.

If your first one move doesn't work it could be anything from your rear hooks are stiff or jammed (you can sort of access them from the trunk, but it's tight) all the way to the more complicated issue, some cable that links the top lever to the hooks is snapped.
Hope that helps!

I figured it out. The latch bolt was hanging up on the piece of metal attached to the wheel hub. I just had to nudge the seat over a little and it flipped up.
