Default What to do with my rear seat?

The first thing i did when i got my jeep was take out the rear seat since the only passengers i intend on carrying are my 2 dogs. Since my seat is just stored in the garage and taking up space. I'd like to utilize it somehow like as a couch. Has anyone ever made a base to set the seat on top of to raise it off the floor and protect the metal do-hicky's? Any other ideas on what to do with the rear seat? I kind of doubt i could sell it for much and dont really want to get rid of it.

No idea, but would love to hear a few...
Mine just takes up space, but it has been used a couple of times

Mine is setting upstairs in my bonus room with my rifle case laying on the seat. I'm only keeping it for the next owner of the Jeep.

I have been tossing around the idea of doing this too. I never use the rear seat ever anyway.

I have a JKU with a 2 door rear seat as my 3rd row. I bought an extra teraflex 3rd row seat adapter & built a small box to mount the bracket to. Now when im not using it in the jeep I use that as an extra seat when I'm out in the garage.

Ideas would be nice. I'm just keeping mine for the next owner as well.

I had my TJ rear bench under my work bench in the garage for 4 years. Then I bought the JK and that rear bench replaced the spot under the work bench.

I helped a buddy bolt his down to a a couple 2x4's and stuck those slick furniture sliders on the bottom so they'll slide around.
