Most high seats I have seen, including mine the seat is just below the top of the rollbar. Granted mine is not a jeep but here is a picture, it just needs paint.

1980 CJ7 - Rack base mounts to rear seat mounting holes. Heavy 3 inch angle iron base, thin wall square tubing for uprights and rails, foam insulation around top rail and cheap swivel seat from Cabela's.  Shade material snaps on around top for little more concealment. Works well as a spur-of-the-moment blind when needed. Haven't had any problems with being top heavy.

This is the one I built for my yj and made some brackets so I could use the factory seat it is just about the perfect height. It just sits on top of th wheel wells and I strap it to the seat mount brackets.

deuce12's looks like you can fold down the back seat and still be able to put the soft/hard top on...
