85 pickup seat swap
I have an 85 C-10 full size with a bench seat that is shot. I can get a 90 Suburban bucket set and console for $100, is there a chance it can be modified easily to install? Thanks in advance, I'll check back.

Re: 85 pickup seat swap
Thanks I'll seal the deal. I just put a set of 20's on it, it looks better but needs bigger skins than the 275X45's, not enough meat in the back.

Re: 85 pickup seat swap
If you can get the seat brackets that are welded in the suburban it will make it a lot easier on you. Otherwise you'll have to fab your own bracket for the front inner on each seat.

Re: 85 pickup seat swap
Hand chisel and small sledge, did not want to change the shape of the bracket so I removed a small chunk of the floor where the brackets were attached.

Re: 85 pickup seat swap
What about the inner seat belt attachment?? If you grab them from the Burb do you mount them in the same place as the bech seatbelts were??
