Ohio Diesel Parts Rear Seat Recline Kit for Jeep Wrangler JKU/JL — Black Billet Aluminum, CNC-Machined for Improved Comfort

Ohio Diesel Parts Rear Seat Recline Kit converts the fixed rear bench of 4-door Jeep Wrangler JKU/JL (2007–2020+) into an adjustable, more comfortable reclining seat using a black anodized-style aluminum mounting kit.

This precision-machined kit replaces the original fixed rear seat hinge points on compatible Jeep Wrangler JKU and JL 4-door models (model years 2007–2020+), allowing the rear seatback to recline for improved comfort and passenger support. Finished in flat black and crafted from 6061 billet aircraft-grade aluminum, the kit ships with high-grade hardware and is designed for straightforward installation with common hand tools. Note: this kit is not compatible with 4xe hybrid models.

How does this kit change rear-seat comfort?

Instead of a permanently upright rear bench, the recline kit lets the seatback tilt back several degrees to create a more relaxed seating position for passengers on long drives or off-road trips. The CNC-machined hinge points provide a stable pivot that resists wobble and keeps the backrest secure in the reclined position.

• Adjusts rear seatback angle for better passenger posture and comfort
• Solid billet aluminum hinge reduces flex compared with stock parts
• Flat black finish integrates with factory interior tones
• Works with original seat cushions and belts—no upholstery changes required

Will it fit my Jeep Wrangler model?

The kit is explicitly designed for Jeep Wrangler JKU and JL four-door models spanning 2007 through 2020 and later JLs that share the same rear seat architecture. It does not fit 4xe electrified Wranglers or two-door Wrangler bodies—verify your VIN or model designation before ordering.

• Compatible: 4-door JKU and JL models, 2007–2020+
• Not compatible: 4xe hybrid/electric models and two-door Wranglers
• Designed to use existing seat mounting points—no cutting or welding
• Check vehicle year and door-count to confirm fitment

What materials and hardware are included?

Ohio Diesel Parts builds the kit from 6061 solid billet aircraft aluminum for strength and lightweight performance, then applies a flat black protective finish for a low-profile look. The package includes four high-grade bolts and washers plus extra fasteners so you won’t need special hardware during installation.

• Flat black finish resists corrosion and complements interiors

How hard is installation and what tools are needed?

• Simple bolt-on installation—no special tools required
• Step-by-step alignment using existing mounting points
• Includes extra bolts to replace worn hardware if needed
• Estimated install time: typically under an hour for someone comfortable with basic vehicle fasteners

Who is this for: The Ohio Diesel Parts Rear Seat Recline Kit is aimed at Jeep owners who want to upgrade rear passenger comfort and interior functionality without altering cushions or upholstery. It’s ideal for families, overlanders, and daily drivers with 4-door JKU/JL Wranglers (2007–2020+) who prefer a durable, made-in-USA upgrade that installs with basic tools. If you drive a 4xe model or a two-door Wrangler, this kit will not fit—confirm your model before purchasing.
