I prefer the bench seat and a good upolsterer can fix yours. It depends on what you want with your truck custom or classic. Conmfort or classic.

If you run over to an upholstery shop or two you'll soon know if yours can be repaired. It could be more of a foam issue then a spring issue. In any event this is really something someone has to see to be able to judge correctly. (imho)

esll.

Even if you have yours reupholstered it still won't be as comfy as a newer bench seat, but like ksbeatty said... comfort or classic.

This one is off a late 90's Silverado, it's super comfortable
