Rear bench seat that will fold - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Just wondering if anyone knows of a factory style rear bench seat that will fold to allow extra long cargo inside? Or an aftermarket brand that looks the same and fits?

Thanks,
Dave

I would like that, I went with a 2003 Tahoe 3rd row. Got the brackets from a bone yard.

I used the rear seats from an 89' Burb. They are a 60/40 & fold flat to the floor and look good. If you use the earlier burb seats from the mid 70's, they have a metal back on them that you can paint and they would probably lend better to using the original type upholstery if that is the look you are going for. My seats had a carpeted back and a more contoured foam under the upholstery. Cost me $75 and an hour or so at the boneyard...

Are we talking about the center or the 3rd seat? If you mean the center, there have been a number of other threads devoted to installing a folding seat as the '73+ Burbs have.
