2006 Jeep Seat Repair

[marvinb]

I'm new to doing any type of repair to my jeep, but the passenger side front seat will not lean forward and roll to allow access to the back seat. I know the cable is broke, but does anyone have any diagrams or suggestions on 1) How to remove the seat and 2)How to repair/replace the cable that makes the whole thing work? Thanks! I love my jeep, but it makes getting my lab in the back very difficult!!

I have a 2006 wrangler. The recliner for the passenger side only engages on the right (outboard) side. I'm new to working on seats . Any thoughts on diagnosis and repair?
