Seat fitment
Will these seats (out of 86 crew) bolt in on a 73 Jimmy? I'm mostly interested in the center seat. Could I just bolt it between the stock 73 buckets? Did Suburbans come with a similar center seat and would it be a better fit?

Re: Seat fitment
i've used a set of aftermarket seats in my blazer. the floor brackets had to be modified to mount on a flat surface and the bolt holes won't match but other than that the sizes are the some.
i think the center hump on a 86 crew may be higher than the 73 jimmy also but cant be sure Last edited by tobiahr; 05-15-2010 at 11:46 AM. |

Re: Seat fitment
So, was there ever a factory center seat option for this generation (73-91) of blazer/subs? If anyone has pics lets see it.

Re: Seat fitment
there was no factory center seat option for this generation of burbs or blazers. the closest is the bench front on the burbs

Re: Seat fitment
The pickups and Suburbans both have the large humps in hte floor, while the Blazer has a flat floor. You could probably retrofit seats from 88-up a lot easier as they all had flat floors.
