bench seat & stick shift?
 

I thinking about putting a 95-99 style bench seat with the flip down console in my Blazer, but it is a stick shift. Wondering if anybody else has this type of set up, and if there's trouble with having room for the trans & transfer shifters?

67-72 trucks have bench seats, can't imagine why it wouldn't still work just because of the newer style seat.

I have put that same seat in my 70 GMC Pickup. It is a 4spd & 4x4. I have the seat all the way back, and don't have any issue with clearance on either shifters. The 4x4 shifter does come close to the seat. If I had to move the seat forward, shifting into 4H is probably not an option. In addition, when I have a child car seat in the middle position, it is harder to put into 4H.

Blazers were the only GM light trucks built w/o a bench seat.Buckets were an option on everything but Blazers.The differences between Trucks,Suburbans/Panels,and Blazers/Jimmys starts at behind the doors as far as wheelbase/overall length is concerned.

I think that fun-in-dirt is concerned that this particular year of bench won't work with his shifters, not that an original wouldn't work. I have done some seat swaps, and some transmission swaps where the shifters and the seats interfered. Most of the time we took a torch to the shifters and bent them slightly so they would work, but these were usually work/farm trucks. I doubt that is an option here.

It looks like Hoffa has the answer. I guess it all depends on how tall you are and/or how often you use four-hi
