How do I replace drivers flip and fold with regular slider?

Do you mean spacers to raise the seat? I don't have a flip base, but I just used 1" spacers & longer bolts from a hardware store. 03 TJ.
I had the lockbox under my 97 without the flip and fold.
It was marginally useful.
What was terrible was the 3 hours face down contorted in the footwells doing 1/8" turns with an Allen wrench and pliers trying to tighten the bolts.
Removed it the next time my seat came out.

Yea, I am still trying to decide if I need to spend the extra money for the other slider & lock box.
Supposedly, they are different from 03-06.Are the seats different between the 05 and the 06 ? Just wondering because I have one mounted under my driver seat. Never mind about the little 9 mm as it was lost in a boating accident

My 04 doesn’t have the flip seat, so my lockbox easily goes under. Except as @macleanflood states, one or two of the bolts makes it really fun to snug. Maybe buy a non flip seat base.

Really good job getting rid of the serial number. Did you use a mill?
I assume you're trying to mount a Tuffy box.
They have different size boxes for flip and non-flip.
I've wondered how much modification would have to be done to get the larger box to fit under the flip seat.
Or swap out my flip base for a regular base; I hardly ever flip the driver side.

Is this a Tuffy box, and is it the smaller one designed for the flip seat?
Your slider stays with your seat, you just need to swap the flip base out for a pair of stationary bases.
$40 or so on ebay.
