Re: 2000 silverado seats
ive got a pair of similar seats from an 02 installed in my 87.. pretty much a custom fabricated seat frame and it fit perfectly.. lol. I basically bought some either 1.5 or 2" square tubing and laid it between the frame rails, then about 2" or so on the other side of the slider. a piece of 1.5 x 1/8 strap metal bridged the gap. that was the seat frame. bolted the bottom of the seat couchion to the new frame. Cut the seat back mounting tabs off of the original frame, and welded that to the new frame. No more recline feature in my truck. the seats rest aginst the window seal. its been that way for about 2 years now.
recap: custom frame was the ticket here.. clint
