    I have a '75 CJ5.

    THe seat covers are coming apart,

    WHERE can I good replacement covers for this? No, I don't want a universal 'seat cover'.

    These are OE and correct for the yr, black low back, with faux stitching and such in the middle sections.

    I do not like the BESTOP 'classic' replacements, the back padding is inadequate, and the seat is the wrong height, I would rather just replace with the same thing Jeep made them with.

    I'm with you - the factory seats are really quite good.

    If you search old posts, you will find plenty of owners who have taken their seats to an upholstery shop to be rebuilt and recovered. Someone used to sell new covers for these seats on ebay a long time ago, but I have not heard of them since.

    Not a lot of parts support for intermediate Jeeps, other than engine and drive train.
