No yet installed, but I'll be riding on a set of Corbeau Moab buckets I ordered. They're all vinyl so that they'll be easier to keep clean in the long run! Factory rear bench seat will be getting custom covered & the foam modified to exactly match the fronts. Should make for a comfy ride!!!

Recovered 1990 or 1991 Suburban buckets and center console.

russgt · 05-02-2011, 08:35 PM

I love the look of the twin stick.

80SPORT · 05-02-2011, 11:26 PM

The original ones Chevy put in ...still looking good.

SBTork · 05-02-2011, 11:37 PM

question to DirtyLarry

What kind of factory style covers are those? Katzkin, or something else? They look real nice.

f.monroe · 05-03-2011, 12:08 AM

I wish I had better pics but here are my buckets . Factory low backs in the 77 I just drug up from the barn . I hope to actually get something done on this one .

Thanks, they are just something my upholstery friend cobble together with scraps he had laying around his shop. He used some heavy duty gray vinyl with 2010 GMC Sierra fabric in the center. He did a great job of keeping the original Suburban contour though but could have done better building up the arm rests. It was only a $300 job so I can't complain too loud. The seats are comfy!

Russgt,

I don’t think I would go out of my way to do a twin stick ever again, it was done out of necessity for the 205 shifter to work with the NV4500. The single shifter stick bracket that came with the Advance Adapter kit was a fimsy wobbly POS. I personally think a twin stick is a waste of time but still better than the AA mess.

A brighter view of them before they were installed.

if your bench is red I'd be interest'd in it if ya do get some bucket's.

MalibuSSwagon · 05-03-2011, 04:23 AM

I have some 96 Mitsu Galant seats in, they are ok. Guy I know is hopefully hooking me up with gray Suburban buckets and center console for cheap.

SoCalKris · 05-04-2011, 11:03 PM

This is a great thread, I have a bench seat with a fold down console that I cant stand. I'm definately going to start looking into Bucket Seats

Payback · 05-05-2011, 11:18 AM

These came from a Silverado. I like the built in seat belt and they're super comfortable.

How did you mount these?

Chris Guthro · 06-11-2011, 08:33 AM

I have a set of a 98' GMC sierra 6 way power seats and matching console, will they bolt up using just the stock 98' mounts into my 2wd 84?
