swapped seats today -

Well, today was the day - I have a nasty cold, but I arranged to have the guy come over this morning so we could swap seats out of our trucks. I swapped the bench for the buddy buckets. Oh, and I gave him a WW knob, and a window crank. Pretty good deal, huh? I am really excited - I'm gonna get them re-covered, probably the same color, because it look like it matches with the silver poly that is in my truck now. Here's some pix.

Re: swapped seats today -

I just drove around the block with them - even worn out, the foam is better than the old seat. The guy was happy as a clam to have a relatively new seat in his truck, so it was a win-win.

Re: swapped seats today -

dan42...Could I get a high res pic of that jacking instuction label in the buddy bucket box? I am collecting them...LOL! Really...it looks like the best decal I have seen and the reproduction units are not exact.

Thanks so much.

They popped right in - they're only bolted down with 4 bolts instead of 8 like the bench, but it lines right up. Here's a picutre of 'em in and a closeup of the jacking instructions.

Great swap, I have the buddy seats in mine, they are in great shape. Love having the center arm rest and makes easy for third passenger.
