72 Bucket Seat floor brackets

I need to purchase floor brackets for my 72 K5. I am in the process of installing the lowback buckets. I have a correct passenger side seat and brackets but not the drivers. I purchased a pair of 73-75 seat with brackets that I thought would fit, but nope!

Any leads are greatly appreciated!

It snowed the other day and I took the Five out and about around the neighborhood! The top has not been on for almost 2 years.

I just renewed my dues, sorry for the delay!

This is a great site and it is very helpful in maintaining my truck!

Re: 72 Bucket Seat floor brackets

What is the lenght (front to back) of the seat post mount that you need, are you using utility seats?

Re: 72 Bucket Seat floor brackets

The driver side bracket is the same as a pickup seat bracket. So those would fit too. At least the one I pulled out of a 71 pickup fit perfect. Pretty sure only the passenger side was different on the blazer and pickup.

Re: 72 Bucket Seat floor brackets

If you still have the 73 brackets you could make work for the driver side with a little work.

Check this thread out, post #22: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=295016

Beats paying a couple $$ for the correct brackets if you already have the 73 + brackets
