What are you running? Do you like the brand you are running or do you hate them and why? I've tried out the Beard Super Seats but damn those things were tight around my mothering hips, lol. So maybe I'll go for the Ultra Pros in 2" wider. Give me some feedback, please.

I got the Mastercraft rubicon 2" wider, havent used them in the bronco yet
but one sat in my living room for a month and it was very comfortable.

At the off road expo I tried the ulra pro's and I would definatly get the
wider one if you got "mothering hips". Goto the next expo in Pomona,
Mastercraft, Beard, etc.. have most of there seats on hand to try out,
thats how we settled on our seats.

I have the beard Super seats, but I did them up custom.
Their not off the shelf, I went to their factory & sat in many of the different seats & found the one that my Fat Butt felt most comfy in...
I spent probably about an hour going back in forth between all the seats they had in their showroom.

& once I finally chose what model I wanted I started customizing my seats, I them made 2 inches wider & 2 inches taller on the back.
& then I spent about another hour going through all their cloth materials & colors & I got to choose everything right down to the color of the thread they used..
& Instead of the typical pipeing you see on most aftermarket seats I chose to remove that & go with the smoother double stitching.... :cool:

I even had them sew on Pockets on the backs of the seats so I could place my 5 point harness'es into while just doing my regular everyday street driving.

& this was the end results of what my BIG BUTT comfortablly enjoys sitting in.

But I must say this about this company...........
Yes they gave me great customer service when I was building my seats with them & about to give them alot of money for them...
But afterwards their Customer service SUCKED! :mad:

The guy that was Oh so attentive would'nt return my calls & the seats were about a month behind schedule of the delivery date they gave me.
& then on top of that!
When The seats were delivered, the were'nt right.
there did'nt use the right color thread & did'nt add the harness shoulder strapps etc etc....
I even had to break out a kitchen knife to cut the openings open so the harness they sold me could actually be used...:rolleyes:

Considering how much time & money I spent designing these seats, I was kinda pissed so I had to send them back to get them done right!
They even did my Harness wrong...
I paid for the Shoulder padding & that was'nt done either.....
(Do your self a favor when ordering a harness get the padded shoulder straps.
They sooooo comfy. :cool:)

I went with the Corbeau Baja Ultra SS. A little tight around the hips but other than that very nice. They said they would fit a 36-38 inch waiste and i'm right at a 36. The 1" wider version(38-40") probably would have been the way to go. Havn't driven long distance off road with them yet so we'll see. Corbeau just came out with a Baja XP that looks pretty sweet, which is probably what we will be getting once the entire truck is finished. If i didn't have to think about budget too much I would have gone with Mastercraft though. Down here in Florida there arn't any places that have a showroom with any seats to try out so it was kind of hit or miss.
