This is my first "How-to" video. I was having a hard time finding instructions on how to remove the front seats from my 'new' JK.
I wanted to put new covers on the seats and make sure that everything was nice and tight. It just seemed easier to remove the seats to accomplish this.
I'm pretty pleased with the results, all things considered.
Hope this helps!

Thank you. I had no idea the bolt covers slide away after you popped them up. I would have ripped those things out if I hadn't seen you. You are the man!!!

Thanks for sharing this video. I have owned my 2012 JK for 12 years now and I had no idea you can shift the driver’s side seat up like that! I am a DIY kind of person so I make mods and work on my Jeep often. This will come in handy when I need to remove my driver’s side seat!

@H2oRichy Год назад

Sweet! The anticipation was building as you finally removed the seat! You made it look easy, and thanks so much!😊

@westsideken Год назад

You're quite welcome. I was all atingle waiting for it to come out myself 😉

Thank you so much for the video. Would this work 2018, I'm trying to go about it without disconnecting the batteries

@H.pylori Год назад

Helpful vodeo. Did you disconnect battery before disconnecting the air bag socket?

@westsideken Год назад

No, I did not because my Jeep does not have side airbags. The only plug underneath there was for the seat belt notifier. I should have mentioned that in the video.

@@westsidekendo all JKs come without side airbags?

@westsideken Год назад

@@Lrmrz94 JKs do not have side curtain airbags. I'm not sure if the newer JL ones do or not. Edit... Apparently after September 1st 2017 all vehicles must have side curtain airbags now 🤷

My ‘08 Rubi has side airbags in the seat.

This is perfect for what i want to do. The carpet is ripped and EVERYTHING goes under it and i hate having to try to get stuff from out of it. I lost my keys down there. so im going to create a barrier between the sides of the seat.

@yodaincgi3607 11 месяцев назад

Thanx! I managed with the driver's seat. The passenger side seat lever seems to be stuck. Am i doing something wrong?

@westsideken 11 месяцев назад

You're probably going to have to use a bit of WD-40 or lubricant and a LOT of muscle.The passenger seat very rarely gets used so it is just stuck. That's what happened with mine, anyway.

@dstewart7470 Месяц назад

Does the passenger side also lift up in the rear to provide easier access for someone riding in the back? I was able to lift up the driver side (thanks for that tip!) but not the passengers.

@westsideken 20 дней назад

Yes it does. Mine was a bear to get up. I ended up using a 2x4 and prying it up while pulling on the lever.

Can you post a video of you doing removing the seat cover? That would be really helpful, or tell me where you fount the info to do that

I didn't record it, but this was very helpful : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oJ8DD48r9dQ.html

@AdrianaRodriguezphd 11 месяцев назад

I'm jealous, my bolts were so tight! My little adjustor for moving seat forward and backwards broke and I'm trying to figure out how to fix it by taking seat out or how to get a new bracket. But how'd you remove seatbelt?? I'm stuck at such a stupid part, I don't recognize that kind of bit.

@mh97384 6 месяцев назад

Great video! Did you disconnect the battery for the airbags? I assume you don't need to, just double checking

@westsideken 20 дней назад

I didn't

@dweezie520 11 месяцев назад

any other tips of pushing the driver seat up the extra inches to access that rear bolt? My seat wont budge!

@westsideken 11 месяцев назад

It's kind of extreme, but put your jack underneath the lever in the back and crank it up very slowly. Make sure it is under the lift up lever and go very gently. If you start seeing the lift up lever start to bend, back off obviously. That would be my best advice. I'm just a backyard mechanic. *I will not be held responsible for any damages that may occur 😬
