Has anyone converted their TJ to a front bench seat?

My other thought is that clearing the tunnel might mean a drastic reduction in vertical space, no?
Get a room. That’d be Cheaper
it's never cheaper.
I haven't, but it has crossed my mind. I had a '70s gmc pickup with a bench seat that easily had 4" of seat-suspension travel. It really soaked up the bumps off road and was quite comfortable.
No way the TJ has the vertical room like that truck did.

I want to see a picture of three corn fed boys side by side on a bench seat in a TJ.
I think you might just replace the center console with an ammo can and top it off with a thick cushion.
Some trick race seats are suspension seats...that might accomplish what you're trying to do.
You also could dial in the Jeep's suspension for go fast.

Not in a TJ but I did replace the bucket seats in my CJ5 with the rear seat from a JKU when my kids were smaller (family of 5). Worked great since it had the 3 point belt for all three seats.
Well, if you just have to do it, I can't imagine why, it would probably be easy to find two non-tumble seat bases and mount a bench that is wide enough to that. You' have the back-and-forth adjustment and original bolting locations (structural safety), but it'd take two hands to operate. Do that or just build a permanent mount and hope you never grow, shrink or have to have someone else drive.
