Re: Who are you buying new foams from?

I've redone 100s of seats. Both bench and buckets. PUI foam is firm...very hard. My experience is the bench foam from PUI is so firm you don't sink down at all and sit a good 2/3 inches higher in the truck because of it. Some people like firm some dont. When I do new foam for bench from PUI I reccomend lowered seat brackets from Full Custom Fab to get you back down a couple more inches so your eyes aren't at the top of the windshield. There bucket foam is the same and is very firm but the sport buckets are more comfortable then then bench seat foam but still hard. American Cushion Industries is the high dollar stuff. It's plush and you sink down some. Is it worth it? If you like a plush cushy seat yes. If you are a more firm mattress guy the PUI will probably be ok for you. As far as springs molded into the foam thats how it was from the factory. Springs on the seats then the foam was molded over the seat frames. Aftermarket foam slides over the seat frames and over those existing springs you got out of the original cushions when you gutted the seat like a fish. Any more questions let me know. Sorry for the novel.
