i just got my gas gauge sending unit in today and was wondering what the easiest way to put it in my truck has a bench seat and was wondering if i would have to remove the seat in order to do so any input would be highly appreciated

I saw a nother post that said you could remove a couple of bolts from your bench seat and it will become a folding bench seat. This may be easier than removing the seat. Somethin' to look into anyway.

1967 Seats and some 1968 were made were they would tilt forward. Other years would not.

If you're a contortionist and move an original seat all the way forward, you could probably get it, but if you're a 220# six footer with fat fingers like me, you'll pull the seat out like I did
