[QUOTE="Dirty Dog, post: 453385, member: 24042"] Congratulations. Of course it's doable. Our kids are grown, but between us we have 10 kids and 14 grandkids. I've decreed that they are no longer named. Just numbered. These are our lifted grandparent cars. [ATTACH]123118[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]123119[/ATTACH] The darker one is hers. It's on 3" of lift and 35's. Mine is on 5" of lift and 35's. No problems with car seats in either. I put car seats in the rear buckets of a '95 Trans Am, working around a roll bar. We honeymooned in England, which meant getting two weeks worth of luggage in a Porsche 911. I'm pretty sure it'll be easier to get a car seat in your Jeep... [ATTACH]123121[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]123120[/ATTACH] The middle is the safest place (and rear facing...) so put it there. But we put them three across at times. Because 14 grandkids... Why? The fiberglass hardtop on a Wrangler provides no significant protection in a rollover. The roll cage does that. And if we assume your baby is properly restrained in a car seat, it doesn't really matter. The seat itself provides protection. I've treated a couple kids who were in a car seat, but the car seat itself was not restrained. They were flung out of the car and bounced down the road. And had no injuries. Two is a ridiculously small sample size, but it's undeniable that car seats are awesome protection. Doesn't make the slightest bit of difference how you get the seat in there. The only thing that matters is that it's properly installed and the baby is properly restrained. [/QUOTE]
