I pretty sure those are not the correct ones for your truck. Don't worry though. I will come by and haul them off for you...

The console is, but the seats look a little tall.
But it'll still be better than the park bench seat.

I found a pair of Monte Carlo buckets for $25 at the Canton swap meet. I'll haveta post pics when I get the truck back from the driveshaft shop.

tom71 · 08-20-2006, 03:53 PM

hmmm so what do you think they came out of? the were directly bolted into a 69 truck , i didnt think the upolstery was og but i thouhgt the seats were the real deal do you guys think the buckets were bolted down to the correct brackets ? and would the measurement be the same as a blazer seat bucket ???

Longhorn Man · 08-20-2006, 03:56 PM

I know very little about the stock buckets, but those apear to be a bit tall. mayube they had been pirated out of a later blazer or something. they ran the seat belt style console untill 76 or so.

Gray Ghost · 08-20-2006, 06:40 PM

Those are Blazer buckets...the 4x4 sitting in my yard has the same buckets in it.

**uncle** · 08-20-2006, 08:02 PM

Looks like correct brackets, maybe a little later seat. They will still fit in the truck.

**southern parts** · 08-20-2006, 08:45 PM

73-76 truck or blazer with 69-72 brackets. look at how the backs are squared off.

That's what I was thinking too. Wouldn't that be 73-77 buckets....?

tom71 · 08-20-2006, 10:12 PM

they are definately not like the buckets in my blazer the brackets look correct for a truck and why no back ?panels

Truck buckets never came with seatback panels. There will never be anybody sitting behind them so they don't need to be finished off.
