Goose Gear Jeep Wrangler JKU (4-Door, 2007–2018) Second-Row Seat Delete — Explore Series (Module-Based 8″)

The Explore Series Second-Row Seat Delete is the current, module-based sleep platform for the JKU — a raised deck that attaches to the back of an 8-inch drawer module, CampKitchen 2.31 or IceBox 1.31, with a substantial storage compartment underneath and access doors on the top and sides. Each system includes a pillow-extension sleeping platform that installs with a thumb screw and a strap around the front-seat headrest posts, and stows against the seat-delete leg when it's not in use — setup takes a couple of minutes. Order the 60% passenger side, the 40% driver side, or both to delete the full second row. It's industrial-grade plywood with Goose Gear's proprietary coating and bolts to factory points with no drilling.

Who it's for

A great fit if you want a raised, module-based sleep platform over your 8-inch drawers with real storage underneath and a headrest pillow extension. Look elsewhere if you already run the older V1 seat delete and just need to add the second side — that has to be the matching Legacy V1 Seat Delete, since the V2 won't mate to a V1.

Where this fits in your build

• System role: Second-row sleep platform — raised deck over 8″ modules.
• You need first: The JKU Rear Plate System plus compatible 8-inch modules (8″ drawer, CampKitchen 2.31 or IceBox 1.31) — it attaches to their rear. Running only the 60% side also needs the 60% Seat Delete Bracket.
• Pairs with / completes the build: Sits over 8-inch drawer modules and a universal CampKitchen 2.31 or IceBox 1.31; add the 60% Seat Delete Bracket if you keep the 40% seat.

Will it fit your rig?

• Fits the Jeep Wrangler JKU 4-door, 2007–2018.
• Order 60% passenger, 40% driver, or both for a full 100% second-row delete.
• Attaches to the rear of 8-inch drawer modules, CampKitchen 2.31 or IceBox 1.31 — requires the JKU Rear Plate System and those modules (not included).
• Running only the 60% delete requires the 60% Seat Delete Bracket to support the retained 40% seat.
• Bolt-in at factory points; no drilling.

Specs

• Industrial-grade plywood with Goose Gear's proprietary protective coating.
• Raised platform with a storage compartment beneath; three access doors (top and sides) per side.

• Made in the USA.

Common questions

Do I need the rear plate and modules too? Yes — this platform attaches to the rear of 8-inch drawer modules, a CampKitchen 2.31 or an IceBox 1.31, all of which bolt to the JKU Rear Plate System. None are included.

What's the pillow extension? A short sleeping-platform extension that bridges to the front seats using a thumb screw and a strap around the headrest posts; it stows against the seat-delete leg when unused.

Can I delete just one side? Yes — order the 60% passenger or 40% driver side. If you delete only the 60% and keep the 40% seat, you also need the 60% Seat Delete Bracket to support that seat.

How much storage is under it? A substantial compartment, reachable through access doors on the top and both sides even with gear loaded on the deck.

Is this the newer design? Yes — this is the current Explore Series module-based version. The older V1 seat delete is a separate legacy product.
