Rear Seat Recline Kit (Compatible with Jeep Wrangler 4-Door JKU, 2007-2018 All Models)

Yup, they work well! The install is relatively easy and if planned out well, shouldn't take more than 30 minutes total. However, as others have said, the factory bolts are tight and look to have a thread lock of some sort. I used a 1/2" compact impact driver and had no problems (DEWALT-DCF894HB). With the front seats pushed forward there's adequate room to work, but it can be a bit tight. Also, some existing bolts are in a tight place and could be difficult to reach without a smaller tool or extension and a U-joint. If you are installing these with hand tools, you may need a breaker bar...the bolts are tight, but they will move.The directions are a bit awkward, so study them a tad. Note that when you remove the bolts holding the seat down, continue to remove the other bolts and then reassemble. The residual thread lock may make the new bolts a bit tough to get started, but not that bad on mine.The resulting effect is a much more comfortable seat with a bit more room for passengers.

Good product which definitely helps back seat comfort. I was able to install in less than an hour with hand tools. Instructions are clear and in color. Two notes on installation. First, if you have a Rampage Rear Sport Rack or similar rear cargo rack, this will likely cause the seats to interfere with the use of that storage rack. I only use the storage rack when camping and the rear seats are folded down so I just removed the rack for the time being. Second, the instructions note that there may be lock-tite left in the holes from the original bolts making re-installing the bolts somewhat challenging. I recommend putting in and removing the bolts a couple of times prior to installing the blocks. I had one bolt hole with enough loc-tite that I was concerned the bolt was cross-threading. Much easier to drive the bolts in and out a couple of times without the blocks in place yet.

Any issues with the product are on the installer. The instructions were top notch. I almost bought the cheaper version of the kit, but all reviews said bad instructions. Glad I splurged a little on the better kit with good instructions. Simple install, but you do need a few tools, including an 18mm socket.FIRST!!! If you have a pneumatic wrench, USE IT! Seriously!!! I got the first seven bolts loosened/off using a breaker bar (which almost broke me). Went to do the last three back legs for the seat. No can do. Seriously, no matter what, I couldn't get them loosened. After fighting with it for an embarrassingly long time, I finally grabbed the air compressor and impact gun. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Got the last three off in way less time than it took me for even one using the breaker bar.SECOND!!! Before you even start, park your Jeep at a slight incline so the doors fall open forward and you aren't fighting with them. Open the front doors, remove the strap that limits how wide the back doors open, and open them into the area where the front doors would be. If you don't open front doors first, you could ding your Jeep.THIRD!!! Instructions say to use seat belt. It seemed ridiculous to even fight with that, so I grabbed a medium bungee and pulled the seats up with that. Super easy.The hardest part of the entire install was getting those daggum bolts off!!! USE THE AIR COMPRESSOR IMPACT WRENCH. Seriously, if you don't have one, it is worth going out and buying one just for this job. I doubt it will be your last Jeep mod. ; D.

If you have anyone riding in your back seat, then you need these. The difference they make in the seat position and comfort is amazing. The hardest part was getting the old bolts out so get a breaker bar and some penetrating fluid if your Jeep is older but it was worth the effort. I would definitely buy again!

Great product and makes a difference for back seat riders. I would suggest to make sure you have a heavy duty impact for the back 3 bolts. They sit at an angle and are super hard to remove. It took me about 3 hours just to get those bolts out with a breaker bar. Front bolts were a breeze.

Results are great, much more comfortable than stock. Amazing what an inch or two of recline can do for comfort. Be sure to remove and loosen ALL of the back seat bolts as directed. and then get these spacers under your seats and loosely put in all bolts before tightening. The changes in angles makes it difficult to get the bolts to thread in straight. Overall, very happy with this kit.

This kit was a perfect fit and easy to install. It is a good value for the big change it makes in sitting in the back seat. Install tip** I do recommend using some WD40 on the bolts as you take them out and power tools are your friend for this job. Only took about an hour with the right tools.

This was the first mod I did to my new JKU. I have 2 convertible car seats in the back and with the kids in them, it almost looked like they were sitting upright. That can't be comfortable for them. Alas, Innovative JK has this awesome and easy to install product to alleviate the problem!It took me less than an hour to install, and that was with filming the install/review for my YouTube channel. It is a MUST have for the back seat. I climbed in after the install, and the back seat is much more comfortable. It should come like this from the factory.A couple tips - use the seat belt to hold up the seat. May have to use some PB Blaster to help loosen the bolts. Some have needed a breaker bar, but I did not.
