crewcab interiors pics/modern lowback buckets

im thinking about building a 4x4 shortbed stepside as a weekend fun/ daily driver, and looking for pics of your favorite or personal crewcab interiors, particuraly one with lowback buckets in the front and bench in the rear. I think i saw someone used a modern front bucket without a headrest form a lincoln navigator or something and it looked really good. If you have a standard cab truck with modern lowback style buckets, post em up too.

Re: crewcab interiors pics/modern lowback buckets



these were the modern lowbacks i was talking about, someone just took the headrest out to make them lowbacks. Any idea what kind of lincoln they are out of?

i will post some pics when i get my seats back from the shop, i used elec buckets in front and a bench w/fold arm rest for rear and console out of a 98 crew cab. i got a katskin leather kit (2 tone gray) for the seats. i installed the carpet this weekend over fatmat sound deadner, on the head liner i was lucky and got one out of a crew cab a buddy wrecked a few years back. i had the over head console base molded into the headliner board and covered w/new headliner. i have roddoor door panels on the way. but will have to wait on the rear ones. also got the front kickpanels for 6'' speakers and rear cab cover from roddoors.

there we go, now someones got my attention. Links to your build thread were you molded in the overhead console? i was thinking about putting one in if i planned to use accessory lights and such. Roddors panels, like tv blazer has? i know we gotta wait a while for the rear doors, but they are working on them.

Re: crewcab interiors pics/modern lowback buckets

Wow ojoe im diggin it, how hard was that header panel to modify? did you have to use any extra screws to hold it up? Actually, i was digging through my old pictures yesterday and i found a picture of your truck lol.

Im just trying to get ideas of what ill need to collect before i pick up a truck, ive got a guy getting me some lincoln lowbacks seats (for the front buckets). How much of the crewcab-only interior pieces are reproduced? i know some pieces arent the same as the suburban, and are kinda rare.

all of the front and side suburan trim will work. the regular cab rear corner pieces will be the same.

Adam,
What do you want for it? If you can ship it to me I can get one made from the original. I have been trying to find this thread for a while. My daughter got on my work PC with email up and found the delete key..
