2nd row Yukon Seat?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

MrDude_1 · 01-27-2011, 03:16 PM

What do you guys think of this seat?
notice its the SECOND row, not the far 3rd row backseat

Im thinking it will work well, but i havent seen it in person or in the truck. Has anyone tried a Yukon/suburban middle row seat? EDIT: I should mention this is for a 51 chevy.. an AD truck not a TF.

The guy wants $125 for it... would you consider that a good deal?

Seems like a fair price for a no tear or ripped seat,don't forget to get the center seatbelt.And don't forget that the seat will not have forword and back adjustment,I think a guy could fab 1 up using sliders from a nothe vehicle

MrDude_1 · 01-27-2011, 03:45 PM

good call on the sliders. i didnt think of that.
thinking about it now....I dont think that would be a big issue for me.. the seat is going as far back as it can, and then staying there. lol.

If they are not worn, do not have tears and are not really filthy its a good price. Around here they usually start at $250. I built my third row bracket so it has tilt adjustment, steering wheel telescopes, pedals are fine.

What kind of truck are you considering this for?

The width is workable for a Task Force truck but too wide for an AD.

One thing to consider on any seat is how well centered the seating position is behind the steering wheel. If it is off center significantly it makes it look like an after-thought.

I am considering using this seat time on my 58 project as I do not need it to move up or back, and it provides very good access under it and behind.

A better option would be the front seats with the integrated seat belts and the jump seat that goes between them.

mines a 51 AD...
I had the guy measure it, and the total width of this seat is 56"...
from reading on here, i understand that it is the maximum width i can fit without issue, but it will fit. is that correct?

tmoble · 01-27-2011, 08:26 PM

yeah, but the drivers seat might/won't be centered behind the steering wheel. if you're comfortable with that you're OK.

gnstalodz · 01-27-2011, 05:24 PM

I have these in my 72. I love it. It's very nice, has a middle arm rest and cup holders.

tmoble · 01-28-2011, 10:43 PM

man, those things are pricey.

BIG CHEVY 3600 · 01-28-2011, 11:59 PM

Yeah, pretty rich for my blood as well. However it has everything you would want including that center fold down arm rest, two outlets, seat heaters, adjustments and reclines. Total with foam was around 1K but well worth it. Another $400 for the upholstery.

The original seat is 52" width.
56" will fit , but its gonna move the drivers seat Butt pad closer to the door.
I found a Astro van 2nd row seat its 52" wide.
I bought a cloth one for $40
this leather one they wanted $150
