A vehicle seat assembly for a vehicle includes a bulkhead mountable to a vehicle body structure at a first location. The seat assembly also includes a seat bottom having a seat pan mountable to the vehicle body structure at a second location that is different than the first location. A seat back of the seat assembly includes a frame. A lower end of the frame is pivotably attached to the bulkhead at a pivot point so that the seat back is pivotable relative to the bulkhead and is supported above the seat bottom by the bulkhead when the vehicle seat assembly is mounted to the vehicle body. A recline mechanism has a driving arrangement mounted to one of the bulkhead and the frame and a driven arrangement mounted to the other of the bulkhead and the frame. The recline mechanism is operable to pivot the seat back relative to the bulkhead.
