Truck bucket seat brackets
 
Hey guys,

I’m a squarebody guy and I’m looking for a set of bucket seat brackets for the drivers side for 69-72 sport buckets. I know the brackets that are for the K5’s are the same as the ones they put in the trucks for the drivers side from the factory. On 69-72 or 73+ trucks I know the passenger side brackets are fixed. On a square body if you want to put 73+ factory low back buckets in a truck, for the drivers side you can take the seat tracks off a bench seat and use them for mounting the drivers side.

My question is does anyone know if you can take the sliders off a 69-72 bench and do the same for a 69-72 truck???

There was a thread a while back about a guy that converted a bench seat brackets to bucket seat brackets, and they looked really good

Looks like they make the pass side, but couldn’t find the drivers

Ok I finally found them. I’m curious how these compare to originals. I heard motor city k5 puts out good stuff.

Still curious about the bench seat conversion

I made my own riser/adaptors out of square tube and then used a set of 66/67 Chevelle bucket seat tracks so that both of my seats can slide back and forth.
