Overview
The Bestop Spice TrailMax II Sport Recliner Seat, part number 39434-37, is a reclining front seat in spice-colored vinyl with a built-in headrest. The manufacturer fitment list names Jeep CJ5 and CJ7 models from 1976 through 1986, plus Wrangler YJ, TJ and LJ models between 1987 and 2006.
Spice is one of several vinyl colors in the TrailMax II range. The upholstery is mildew resistant, the Atlas frame is designed to resist corrosion, and the cushion uses high density closed cell foam with Variable Rate of Resistance springs. Owners of CJ and 1987-1995 YJ vehicles should verify mounting details before installing, since the adapter bracket details cover 1997 and later applications only.
Key features
- Spice vinyl that is mildew resistant and offered in factory original colors
- Reclining seat with a rotary dial that mounts on either side
- Built-in headrest
- Elastic mesh map pocket on the back
- Variable Rate of Resistance springs for on-road comfort and trail support
- Atlas frame and high density closed cell foam cushioning
Planning an interior refresh
Upholstery color is mostly a matter of taste, but it affects how a seat looks after years of sun and use. Darker vinyl tends to hide dust, while lighter shades may show stains sooner. Spice tones sit between those extremes, so choose based on how you use the vehicle and how often it sees direct sun.
Before ordering seats for a shared vehicle, confirm that every seat will have the right adapter setup and that mounting hardware is on hand. Mixing colors across front and rear seats can look intentional when the trim tones are close. Clean all seats on the same schedule so they age evenly.
- Plan color with the interior trim
- Keep a spare set of clips and fasteners
