Product Description

The Rugged Ridge 13201.01 is a left (driver) side fold-forward seat riser bracket designed as a direct OE-style replacement for 1976-1983 Jeep CJ-5, 1976-1986 Jeep CJ-7, 1981-1985 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler, and 1987-1995 Jeep Wrangler YJ models. The fold-forward design allows the driver seat to fold completely forward - improving access to the rear of the vehicle, a critical feature for two-door Jeep owners who frequently need to reach the rear cargo area or assist rear passengers. Constructed from powder coat painted steel, the bracket provides reliable structural support and long-term rust resistance in the demanding conditions these CJ and YJ platforms are built for.

The bracket accepts seat sliders (sold separately) and is compatible with any aftermarket or OE Jeep seat, making it a versatile foundation for seat upgrades or restoration builds. It is a direct replacement for OEM part number 55027117, fitting straight to the factory floor mounting points without modification. For the passenger side bracket, see part 13201.02. Backed by Rugged Ridge's 5-year limited warranty, the 13201.01 is the reliable, factory-quality solution for restoring proper seat function on CJ and YJ models.
