what other models of truck seats have you put into our trucks? do you have any pics? any problems mounting, etc? thanks.

i used some 94 grand cherokee buckets...they work really well, i wanted them so i could toss a sub between the seats until i can work up the courage and money to do a blazer tank swap

Here is what I put in my 68. Had to drill new holes and move center seat ahead one hole. Otherwise a nice EASY fit.

I just got through removing the 98 Dodge truck seats (too high and I didnt want to cut the frames) and installing the 98 Chevy PU seats. These were VERY easy install. Basicly I needed to drill a few more mounting holes and fabricate a spacer block.

seats are out of a 91 Lumina Minivan. drilled new hole in conjunction w/ 1'' spacers.

This here is a factory bench seat out of a 68 chevy pick-up truck. Instaltion was a real breeze!!! I didn't even have to drill any holes, or make any spacers!!!!

*racedvl* · 08-12-2002, 10:46 PM

Here was the mess I had removed to install my seat.....

I actually like the bench alot more! I don't even have this one in it anymore, I was able to swap it out for a full foam model.

I also used 91 lumina van seats....but i put mine between the humps in the floor and flush with the front hump......just drilled 4 new holes and didn't use any spacers.

Just a re-upholstered original bench, just like riding around on your favourite couch! After several years of driving a Mazda with bucket seats designed for tiny Japanese sized butts it is fantastic, can actually break wind whilst driving now! LOL
