I don't know what those are from, but 100% positive they're not from a Camaro. They do look familiar though, just can't place them.

Not Suburbans, just crew cabs. They are the same seat, so you just swap out the slide tracks from your seat to the replacement seat.

So crew cab front seats will replace a bench?

Well, yeah, I suppose a crew cab front seat would replace a bench seat.... if the crew cab front seat was already a bench seat.

Let me try this again.... a crew cab rear bench seat is the same as a front bench seat from any other truck that has a bench seat.

How much wood could a wood chuck chuck, if a wood chuck....... :lol:

Front bench seats in crews and suburbans do not fold.

They can be made to. It was 20-some years ago, but we pulled the original front out of my 79 crew and put it in one of our company trucks, and we removed a bolt or pin or something. LOL, don't remember for sure what we did, it was a few years ago, but we got it to fold. Did the same thing to my 70 K10 also.

ok....sorry to be stupid....I was just trying to understand.....lol. I'm also checking in to replacing my bench with buckets fairly easily as I really don't have the resources to fabricate a lot.

I've got the rear bench from a '77 CC as the front seat in my '84 GMC right now. Remove the rear bolt/screw on each seat back arm, to allow it to fold forward. (You have to loosen the side cover upholstery to get access to it, 2 hog rings, no big deal) RED
