*gmachinz* · 12-15-2018, 11:02 AM

I used 1990 Suburban buckets and console in my ‘86. I sourced 2 complete benchseat brackets from donor 73-87 pickups and used a pair on each bucket seat. I had to drill 2 new holes in the seat bracket frame for each bucket seat so that everything bolted up fine. And the only other mod was shortening the slide liver about 2” because the bench seat ones extend out further than buckets do.

Sorry I dont have any measurements tho-I did this because I didnt want to caveman bend the brackets and have it look goofy...I wanted a factory look.
