Will the seats (front and back) out of a 99 grand cherokee ltd, fit in my 98? I found a real good deal on some 99 leather seats so i want to grab them. What kind of custom work will i have to do to get them to fit?

AFAIK, there's no easy way to swap them in - especially the rear seats. The fronts are doable, but you're probably going to have to swap the seat tracks.

There used to be quite a few '95 5.9 seats on eBay - that's where I got a set for my '96. That would be considerably easier to do.

the front seats i know i can make them fit, swap the tracks or make some brackets no prob. I once swapped seats out of a 93 honda prelude into a chevy full size lol.
But for the back seats... how much of a difference is it? Are they the same size just different mounting brackets and such?

98, not 95. Dunno why the fuck I typed that.

I imagine by looking at the brackets and using a tape measure you would be able to answer your own question.
