You can completely remove and reverse the front head rests. Way more comfortable that way. However, doing this could probably mess with the original safety intensions of the angle.I dont like how far forward the front and rear headrests lean and want to bend them back about an inch. I know the front headrests pull out and rear are connected. Has anybody figured out a way to do this?

Thanks for trying...Already read that thread and it doesnt offer a solution to bend the headrest back. Only suggest reversing them in front which pushes them back too far for me and offers no solution on rear headrestsAnd here is just one from May 2018 - https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/front-seat-and-rear-seat-head-rests-questions.8957/
This is awesome . Honestly the whole seat pan needs to be angled up 4 degrees too. Its astonishing how they didnt put a provision for that.I dont like how far forward the front and rear headrests lean and want to bend them back about an inch.

Not at all dude it bothers my neck and the forward angle is kind of perplexing.Sarcasm?
Put it in a vise and bend close to the cushion and poss so you dont lose the height adjustibility.Sarcasm?
Thought of that...want to be careful to not scratch the metal. May wrap the post in duct tape to protect it.Put it in a vise and bend close to the cushion and poss so you dont lose the height adjustibility.
It is a head restraint. Its purpose is to prevent neck injuries in a collision. The angle/engineering/design minimizes a potential neck injury.Not at all dude it bothers my neck and the forward angle is kind of perplexing.
We have a 2016 honda odyssey van and neither of the headrests are pushed as far forward as the jl or as uncomfortable. I would think Honda did alot of safety testing.It is a head restraint.
