Default Driver's seat loose?

I am beginning to notice that my driver's side seat feels like it is getting loose. I will look at it tonight and see if there are any bolts coming out. I get a slight rock when I accelerate.

I'll be interested in what you see. I've had the same thing since about day one. It hasn't gotten any worse, so I've (so far) chalked it up to the height adjustment.

I have noticed the same thing...I posted about it awhile ago. Can't find the link right now.

*Update*
My seat always creeked and groaned a bit but now the lower seat belt catch is loose and making all kinds of noise. Time for a dealer trip again. Last time they said the seat was fine and nothing out of the ordinary for a Wrangler. Figures there were none on the lot at the time to compare to. Dealears!

Hey Armycop and JackMacOKC I know what the problem is...Disney is whats wrong, all of us hitting the trails and bouching around everywhere... . Not to mention I was running 32psi in my tires ALL day, I was having sooo much fun it never hit me that I needed to deflat about 20psi... .


But really I never felt anything, my seats don't rock or anything but let me know what you find...I'll see you on the 5th...probably.

my driver seat has been making noise since day one, dealership says they can't reproduce the noise even with the biggest guy in their shop !!!! Are they telling me I'm too fat? So please the first one that finds the cure, let us know....

I dont have a squeek but does seem to have some play when i sit down. Maybe it's due to hopping in jeep after lift?
