Captkaos adapted some single stand alone buckets in his Blazer.
Where the pics Capt? I have two single stand alone bucket seats from an Astrovan that can be made to fit. You have make bracket for them. Not too hard since the buckets already have a 6"-8" metal base to bolt to. |

Here are the pics of the seats mocked in the floor of my Jimmy: http://www.captkaoscustoms.com/Jimmy/jimmymock.jpg Here are the buckets (Toyota Xtracab) buckets mounted in my pickup (OLD pic) http://www.captkaoscustoms.com/images/sueinside.jpg For both I had to make brackets that would mount them to the floor. I have a set of buckets that came from my Jimmy that need recovering that I will sell and I have a matching console. http://www.captkaoscustoms.com/temp/k5buckets.jpg Reguardless of what you get you will have to make mounts for anything. Unless they are new and you get brackets for the application, or you find a set that originally came out of a pickup.

That picture isn't a Toyota truck, it is a 1973 C10 pickup with Toyota Xtracab seats mounted in it.

I have a set from a 75 chev pickup, saddle colour, with mint console, door panels, gauge bezel. I may split them up. Check the parts board.

I used bracket out of a suburban and seats out of a Ford Aerostar van. If you want some picts email me and I will email them to you. The suburban seat mounts work perfectly, there is one piece of metal that you have to cut out and bolt in your truck. When you look at the frame setup in the suburban you will see what I am talking about.
