Thank you for the comment. Glad you enjoyed. I probably would have gone with a full bench, but this seat was free. The 88-94 seat design provides a lot more room in these cabs. Always liked a bench in a truck. My wife is under 5' so she can adjust forward on the passenger side with the 60/40.

Picked up the seat today. I am almost never fully satisfied with results of work I farm out, regardless of the cost. Very happy with the results. Feels nice but I sit a bit higher than wanted now, I fully expected this with the foam work. Will shorten the seat mount brackets about 1"-1.5" My modified inner bracket for the 60 side needs an additional 1" chop. I sat them in the truck to see how they look. What do you think?

Man Richard, those seats are incredible! I’m pretty jealous!

Seats turned out good. I definitely understand the not being satisfied with farmed out work.

Thank you. Maybe my expectations are to high? IMO, If I am paying someone for something they do for a living. They should do better than I can do myself. I always pushed myself to be the best I could be in my career.

Thanks! Objective I am trying to accomplish with many of the modifications.

As I need to modify all four seat brackets now. I am reconsidering a custom frame that bolts to stock mounting points. Going to look at seat risers again and make a decision on which way to go.
