Wiring the Power Seat Question. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

cruisinthe34 · 10-31-2016, 06:56 AM

I'm installing a 95-98 60\40 power seat in my '71. My question is I have three wires as candidates to supply the power. One black (which I have to test as the ground) and then two orange wires, which I can only assume are both hot wires.

I plan to provide 12 volt on a 30 amp fuse. Dont know of any other choices I have, just thought I'd tap the collective knowledge of the forum. Thanks in advance.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
