Default JK seats and lumbar support(lack there of)

So the JK seats absolutely destroy my back on road trips because there is no lumbar support. Anyone have any solutions to this?

Well, it's not the prettiest but you can always just pick up one of these and tie it around the seat.

I think that thing would be even more uncomfortable. Look into other seats that have lumbar in them. Thats what I would do if it was me looking. Just my .02 cents

Any good auto local upholstery shop can add an inflatable bladder type lumbar support to pretty much any seat.

I just had a local shop install electric lumbar support. The rocker switch was put on the side of the counsel. It is the same unit Ford puts in their Ranger. It is awesome. Doesn't leak out. Back pain gone. $230.00 installed.
