Default Removing 3rd row jump seats?

Could someone please send me in the direction of a link showing how to remove the 3rd row seats in a D2? I've got a trip planned with our dog & her crate will not fit in the rear compartment without removing at least one of the seats. I've sort of looked at it, but am not sure where to start.

Thanks guys!

Unfold them halfway, dont lock them down to the floor. There is only four bolts holding each seat in place. Unbolt four bolts, per seat, and remove from truck.

Instead of removing your jump seats can you buy an automotive dog barrier for your cargo area? I got one on amazon for less than $100, and it works great.

I have a dog barrier & use it a lot for normal dog rides. We are taking the crate with us on the trip anyways so I figured we should just set it up in the back and let the dog ride in it.

I want to take mine out to get a little more cargo room, but I was concerned about the bolts/nuts. If I unscrew those bolts is there a nut on the other side that wil fall off and get lost in the body or does it screw directly into the metal?

No. The bolts or threads are welded in place. It's a passenger seat. It has to be help down w/ more than a loose nut and bolt. The nuts come off, make sure to keep them somewher safe. Oh yeah, I believe mine had thread lock on them or maybe, it was rust from when I sunk and submerged the passenger side of the truck into a mud pit.
