M38A1/CJ5 seat frame

[m16ty]

I've got a old CJ5. While I'm not trying to pass it off as a M38A1, I am planning on giving it a camo paint job. The seats are shot and I'm looking for some seats to go with the camo paint.

I was looking online a M38A1 seats. I'm wondering how the M38A1 seat cushions would fit the CJ5 frames. I saw some M38A1 frames but they seem awfully expensive and I'm sure they would also have to be modified to fit.

What I'd like is some info on how the M38A1 cushions mount and how hard it would be to fit them to CJ5 frames.

I ended up ripping all of the vinyl and foam off of the cj5 frames and modifying them to fit the M38 covers. It turned out ok but I may end up making some changes to the frame backs for cosmetic reasons. I'll take some pics and post them when I get a chance.
