Did you ever end up making sets of these? I have a 97 and 04 that I’d absolutely be in for 2 sets.

Just realized you were new and cannot PM, I sent you one so I think you should be able to reply to that.

Did you ever test these to see if they work with the 03-06 sliders? If they do I would love a pair.
Same here (66"), in my 98 I raised the seats 1 1/4". Swapped in seats from a 2000 tj and kept the risers. Fast forward a couple years, bought an 04 and mounted the 00 seats from the 98 in the 04 with NO risers, could see the edge of the hood just fine. Maybe I grew?
As @mudmaster said they can work with 03-06 but I need to make some modifications. The remaining ones I have are setup 97-02 only but can modify a set for the 03-06 no problem.
I'd love a set too. I'll try and PM you but I'm a newbie too. My back story is:
I am a tall guy (6'6"). I used the big boy brackets to move the seats back, but I recently changed the seats out of my 2001 TJ to a set from 2004, which I was told would sit lower.
I’m not finding that to be the case, they are either the same size or maybe a smidge higher (I did put a new foam cushion on the driver side seat).
Using stock seats, because now I have the 2001 and the 2004 is there any trick to modifying the brackets to make the seat sit lower ? TIA!

XCRN, I can't DM you because I'm too new but please DM me or email me at mistro914@gmail.com. As I said in my post, I'm now using a set of 04 seats in an 01 tub. Thanks! Hope to hear from you soon.
Just sent you an email. I sold my last set through Facebook yesterday but going to get more material to make more since there is a lot of interest in these.
Shoot timing is everything, but I am interested when you get more material and start up again. I'm responding to your email now.
Just got a few sets of the gen 2 seat mounts in and got a few welded for test fit. They now fit both 97-02 and 03-06 seat sliders as bolt on and I inadvertently found out with at least the PRPs, I was able to reasonably get into the back seat without the fold and tumble feature. Im 6’-0 and pudgy and was able to get in the back fairly easy on the pass side.
Hopefully soon, everything test fitted fine with this new batch, so just need to get them all welded up then will be ready to get them sent out.
Thanks! One of my earlier setups I made was like that, never ended up using it though, and after making and installing few of these newer formed ones I do not think the original one I made from flat bar would have worked at all.
