I have a couple of high back seats that are in need of new covers. It appears that they old ones remove without much trouble. Does anyone know of a good place to get replacements? Thanks!

Does OD cloth offer colors other than OD like tan or black? I know Jatonka only offer OD green as I contacted them recently wanting a set in tan and was told no.

I think he will do Tan.
I'd drop him a email .
He may be willing to sew up material provided. ( not sure but worth a try
I have a few links to some material suppliers someplace

I'd take a set of tans if a group buy is more appealing to him.

I have a A3 seat that can use a set, Tan will work.

I emailed weebee about doing repros of the OEM hiback covers in regular ol green. They don't list humvees on their website specifically but I'd seen they have done them for members in the past. Any of you guys had that done recently? I haven't gotten a reply from them in about 3 or 4 weeks.

If you want green, then the link above to Jatonka has them in green, just not Tan or black. I also emailed weebee about tan or black and have heard nothing.

I just spent a week bouncing around on a fresh set of WeeBee Webbings cordura seat covers in 383 green and they're absolutely the best. Dave and Donna can provide covers in almost any color you want and their work is always first class! I'm sure if you email or contact then directly they can give you what you need. This picture shows the new back with the old bottoms and really doesn't do them justice. They look better than what's in the picture. They can also be made in about any color.

Can we see some pics of these covers that have been installed?

That looks sharp. What did they run you?
I take it installation is just unbolt from bracket , slip on, and rebolt?
I would be interested in a set of 4 in tan cordura if it helps a group buy.

The uppers are held in place with hogrings. They're C shaped staples that get crimped around the rods in the covers. The lowers are held in with some C shaped clips that just snap around the lower frame tubes. The sets run around $200 for any color and the cordura outlasts the canvas of the originals by about 3 times.

I emailed Weebee and they said they don’t do them now because the seats have changed. Jatonka said the same thing regarding M1097A2 seats being different than M998 high backs.
What are the changes that they are both referencing? I would rather have the nylon from Weebee Webbing and don’t want to waste money on covers that won’t fit the M1097A2 I am waiting on.

My 1097 needs new covers too. For my M923a2, I recently bought 3 yds of cordura 1000 nylon off Amazon and had local stitch shop just make them. Charged $150 and they look perfect. The high back seats will look good too.
