My daily driver is a basically stock 97 TJ that's getting a 5.9 Magnum swap, Currie lift, interior upgrades, etc. this winter to make it a more comfortable daily and more capable leaf looking rig. It has the stock seats in it now and I've narrowed down my replacement options to Mastercraft Baja RS and Corbeau Moabs and am looking for feedback on these. Also, is there is a better option for sub $1200, I'm all ears.
 
My DD 97 TJ , I run PRP Daily Drivers.
I can still tumble the front seat. I was lazy and bought the seat bracket. The height is perfect for my needs. Also I was able to color match my tan interior.

The passenger seat I kept the factory seat so it still has the fold without having to reach under the seat.

I've got a 5yr old that rides in the back and usually have stuff in the passenger floor board. When he gets old enough I'll swap out the passenger side for another PRP. You can still tumble the seat far enough to get in the back easy enough with a fixed back seat.

A great value option I've also ran in my XJ was a mastercraft nomads. They are about the same deminsionaly as the PRP just they only come in black.

I’ve got some PRP’s in my 4Runner and they are the tits! I got the fixed back ones due to most of the time the top is off and it’s just easier to climb up the side to get back there anyways. I’ve been thinking a lot about getting some for my dd Tacoma too. I’d highly recommend them.
 
We have a pair Corbeau GTS II seats in the Sami now that I like for daily driving. We're looking to upgrade to PRP suspension seats in the near future & swapping the Corbeaus into our stock TJ.

For the PRP owners - any experience with the Premier High Back seats?

Yeah that’s exactly what I’ve got. They’re mint. Well worth the price and they have a nice feel to them when you’re in them.

Those are gorgeous (and similar to the ones I'm customizing!). I hate to hijack this thread but is there any chance you're on the thicker side of life? I'm trying to make sure @Mulishajoe will fit in these seats.

Hahahaha I got them extra wide, I ate my cornbread growing up and a few too many beers to boot. The extra wide isn’t really wider, I think it’s the sides are different. It works though. They're thicc boi friendly. I’ll send you some more pics later.

That's exactly what I needed to know! Thanks so much - I appreciate it!!!
 
I've got PRP seats and highly recommend getting them in vinyl with the mesh drain. You never have to worry about getting swampass. If it rains you just wipe it off with a towel and roll on. No waiting for them to dry.
 
I like these. Seatbelt can go around like normal and doesn’t loop through seat.
I have them in my “daily driver” XJ
