I like your seats. DO you have a picture of the brackets you made or can you take one. I would like to get a set of seats for my truck.
Hey Cliff. Haven't had a chance to check to posts for a couple of days so haven't answered. I can't really take a picture of the brackets because they are under the carpet but I can tell you how I made them and it was really simple (otherwise I wouldn't have been able to do it). I just went to Home Depot and bought some of the steel bar stock that is about 2" wide and probably 3/16" or so thick. For the inside track of each seat (near the center of the cab) I was able to line up the front and rear holes in the seat track with the stock holes in the floor.
The front and rear holes for each seat track near the doors did not match up and that's where I had to make the brackets. The holes in the seat tracks were about 2" or so away from the stock holes in the floor. So, for each of those holes I just cut a piece of bar stock that was long enough to go from the stock hole in the floor to the hole in the seat track. I drilled a hole in the bar stock so I could bolt the bar stock to the stock hole in the floor, and then I drilled a hole on the other end of the bar stock to mate with the hole in the seat track. I used Grade 8 bolts to put it all together so I think everything is OK. It's a really simple setup but it is working great and it took me about an hour to put it together.
If you want, I can draw a little diagram and send it to you to show the size of the pieces and exactly what I did. Just let me know and send me your email address and I'll be glad to do that.

I'm not sure which model Cherokee the seats came out of and the guy I bought them from didn't know but I suspect they came out of a Grand Cherokee. I'll see if I can look online and find some pictures of similar seats so I can tell.
Also, I haven't forgotten your drawing for the seat brackets. I'll get something together for you this weekend.
