Custom sliding blazer buckets?/ easy rear entry? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Reumster · 01-03-2003, 11:18 AM

Has anyone ever attempted to put say a custom bucket set-up where the seats recline, and the seat backs go forward at the same time slide forward for easy rear entry? I've thought about this alot. I want driver and passenger seats to do this. And at the same time using a newer chevy pickup seat that has the 3 point belts built right into the seat.

Any ideas? Possible?

Watch to make sure if the passenger seat tilts forward, like the original, high-back seats hit don't the windshield. My Blazer has high-back seats of unknown origin and the passenger seat hits the front window. I'm always afraid someone is going to fling it forward too fast and break out the windshield. What ever you do, make sure you take some pictures.

why not get buckets out of a late model 2dr tahoe? they sound like what you are looking for.
