Buddy bucket position on frame? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey ya'll,

I've got two buddy bucket sets. One has the seats and center bolted different than the other. Which way is correct?

Does the bend go to the rear, towards the gas tank. Or facing forward?

Thanks

Bend in the front.

Thanks!!

Anyone ever try running it backwards? Although looking at the frame, it tilts the seats better in the position pictured above. Unless I'm thinking backwards, it looks like it would space the seats back 2-3". Maybe use a small spacer in the front to fix the tilt?

Hmmm
