Re: BUCKET SEATS in a 1984 ??
The floors should be the same, Use the seat tracks that fit the seats.

Re: BUCKET SEATS in a 1984 ??
The floors aren’t the same, from the trucks to the Blazers. That’s why the tracks & brackets are different. The tracks I have on my buckets, are just like the truck bench seat tracks.

Re: BUCKET SEATS in a 1984 ??
First of all, thank, you both for your input !
Actually my seats are from a Blazer, have full plastic backs and passenger side has the flip forward brackets. Looking at the bolt holes, it doesn't look like the 73-75 bench seat brackets will fit my seats. My seats only have 4 threaded bolt holes that I can see, the ones in the picture that have the bolts in them. Or am I missing something ?

Re: BUCKET SEATS in a 1984 ??
Its because the track themselves do not bolt to the seat frame. There are other brackets that bolt to the seat frame, and then the tracks bolt to those. If you look at the bottom of my seat, the one that has the bench seat tracks. There are other brackets, one of them is broken, that's why the one track is swung out of position. I have all those brackets circled in the photo, they are out to my buddies getting welded back together.
And then the last photo is the passenger seat, which is stationary. It will not tilt forward like the blazer seat. The seat themselves are actually the same. The differences are the mounts and tracks. The blazers use the riser style tacks, because of the flat floor of the Blazer cab floor. The seat, if they go into a truck, will have to use all the tracks that fit the trucks, like the BenchSeat. But they also have other brackets that make the tracks fit the seat. Its confusing, I know. It has taken me awhile to figure all this out, along with some help from other board members.

Re: BUCKET SEATS in a 1984 ??
Again, thank you both so much for your time and pictures, you guys are the best.
I'm making a list of needs: 73-75 low back pair of slider brackets for bench seat for driver side. 73-75 low back passenger brackets (4 piece set) for pass. side, from chop shop. 1 pair bench mounting brackets from Chop Shop. 2 'L' shaped brackets, see picture circled in blue, any idea where I could find these ? I have correct bolts, can you tell me anything I'm leaving out/need ??
