what is the best aftermarket bench seat option in your opinion? Looking for a split bench or one with a center arm rest so I can lean a bit because if bad back. Thanks

I'll be interested in following where this goes. I've got an '88-'98 Chevy truck bench seat in both my '68 GMC and '59 Apache. They're fine seats, but leave a lot to be desired. I want to keep a bench, so I can haul my boys around in the old trucks. When you ask about an aftermarket seat, are you talking about a new aftermarket seat, or a seat repurposed from another vehicle?

Find a junk yard and try out every truck seat they have to see what is the most comfortable for you.

If you search “seats” there’s an old thread with lots of seat pics. Mostly from different vehicles that you can fit into our trucks.
