Default Reclined JK backseats

Hey brothers and sisters. I finally reclined the back seats of my JK, and the family LOVES it! I here ppl using a breaking bar to loosen up the bolts....not this Chief. I took it to a auto shop and used their air gun and it took 6 secs. I used 6 washers for all the bolts. If you want some help on how to do it. Let me know.

It's a 4 door 07 jeep. Check out the pics! There are 3 bolts under the seat, and 4 on the legs on the floor that have to be loosened. If you see the "YES" tag on the back seat, it's reclined quite further than your stock.

The first pic is the floor blots
The second is the one under the seat
The last are the results.

Again, if you in the area, I would love to help.
