72 bench seat that folds forward?

[srea76]

Guys I am curious about something. I am looking to buy me a 67-72 bench seat to put in my 72. I have moved the gas tank to under the back bed, so I want a seat that folds forward just for the convenience of getting behind the seat easy if I put something like speakers back there. I have seen some benches that fold and some that do not. Could someone explain what years made the difference in the seats and why some fold?

Sorry I dont have a pic, but it is very easy to make your seat fold forward. There is a bracket on each end of the seat that has 3 large screws in it. you can take out 1 screw (the center one) from each side of the frame of the seat, this will allow a seat to fold forward! Sometimes the bracket is out in the open and sometimes it is covered by the seat cover. hope this helps. good luck

The suburban seat I had folded forward.

Srea 76 how hard was it to do your gas tank conversion, I would like to do it on my 68
Thanks

If you search the forums you will find many posts on the conversion. When I bought my truck they had already moved it from behind the seat, but it was in the back bed in a large cheap aluminum tank. I bought one of the blazer tanks to move it under the bed. I still have not made a decision on how to plumb it, but its back there. Check out my sig if you would like to see it.

Check out the 67-68 models. Most of the fold forward seats i have seen came from those years.
