Reviews for Bestop 51255-01 Seat Slider for 76-95 Jeep CJ-5, CJ-7, CJ-8 Scrambler & Wrangler YJ

We'll see how it works

A little hard to line up as mentioned. Also the nylon bushings are the wrong size and don't fit.

Good quality and fits good, I would have given it five stars except they don't include new mounting bolts to mount the slider to the seat. If you're like me where the original seat/slider is what is you are removing then you are screwed because the old bolts are so rusted they are unusable and you are left trying to find new mounting bolts. If I'm paying almost $90 you could at least include new mounting hardware.

USED ON 1989 YJ JEEP WRANGLER ISLANDER.
WORK OK. HARD TO SLIDE SEAT BACK.

The product works. You mount your seat to it and it to the jeep and you can slide your seat back and forth. The real problem is that the specified torque in the instructions shears the welded on mounting bolts in half. You'll probably want to use some loctite and snug the bolts on instead of using the included torque spec otherwise you're going to have to deal with a return.

This seat slider is supposed to be a bolt on, no problem addition to stock AMC CJ-7 seats. CJ seats are set up with mounting studs at 12" center to center. This Bestop slider is set up for 11" center to center. You have to drill two new holes to make it work with OEM seats. You would figure that Bestop would know better. The worst of it is I asked Quadratec Tech support to make sure these would work with no alterations with a stock CJ seat. They assured me that it would. I expect better than this from both Bestop and Quadratec. Wouldn't recommend these at all. The other thing is they add over 1 inch in height to the seat....so it sticks up way higher than the driver side.
