Overview
The Rugged Ridge Fold and Tumble Rear Seat in black, part number 13463.15, is a folding rear seat for the 1997-2002 Jeep Wrangler (TJ) in SE, Sahara, Sport and X trims. Folding it creates cargo room in the back of the vehicle.
Automotive grade vinyl covers the seat, styled to blend with the vehicle interior and the front seats in the same brand line. The frame is powder coat painted and welded for off-road use, and the foam pack is extremely dense for long life while staying soft enough for comfort.
The seat is finished in black. A fixed rear seat is the better choice for owners who do not need the fold and tumble function.
Key features
- Fold and tumble rear seat that opens cargo room
- Automotive grade vinyl upholstery
- Powder coat painted, welded frame
- Extremely dense foam for long life
- Attaches to existing mounting points
- Black finish
Choosing a fold and tumble seat
A fold and tumble rear seat suits a vehicle where the cargo area needs to be open at times and passenger seating at others. Decide how the rear will be used before buying: frequent passengers, gear hauling, or a mix of both. The mounts carry the load each time the seat moves, so the attachment points deserve as much attention as the seat itself.
Trail use adds vibration and shock to the rear of the vehicle, which loosens fasteners over time. Plan a short inspection after each season of use. Look at the hinge points, the tumble latch and the upholstery stitching. Replacing a worn latch early is easier than dealing with a seat that drops while loaded.
- Plan rear use before choosing fixed or folding seating
- Check hinge and latch wear each season
- Keep heavy cargo centered and secured

Vehicle fitment
It is a direct fit for the 1997-2002 Jeep Wrangler (TJ) in SE, Sahara, Sport and X trims.
Years after 2002 fall outside that range, so 2003-2006 Wrangler TJ models are not covered. Confirm fit for your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Attach the seat to the existing mounting points with minimal drilling. Tighten each mount before the seat carries cargo, since the folding action puts load on those points.
