Re: buckets seats

My preference is for the factory buckets, but the 96-98(??) years look good as well

Re: buckets seats

I'm a fan of stock bucket seats
I like the 71-72 bucket seats,and the 69-70 bucket seats.The 71-72s are a little wider but I'd take either.The 67-68 buddy buckets I like to but not as much as 69-72 seats.I'm not a fan of new seats in a old truck.They may be comfortable but I like the stock ones.I do have to admit my stock utility bucket seats in my K/5 are alot more comfortable than the stock 69-70 bucket seats I have.

Re: buckets seats

I'm using seats out of a sprinter van, they have a thinner back and will leave more room in the small 68 cab.

Re: buckets seats

I am working to put a set of buckets out of a 98 Suburban in my 68. These seats are the same as what is in my 91 Silverado and they are really comfortable.

Re: buckets seats

Like Heavy D I think the factory buckets and console look super in our trucks but I lkke theses type. These are from a 2003 Chevy extended cab ( and are going in my truck) and have power both sides and what I really like about them is the integrated shoulder belts.
