Dumb exhaust question, and dumb seat question.

Seats: What fit's what? I've done some sear5ching, but can't find a good answer. I need a back seat for my 1990 crew cab, is that a specific seat, or is it the same as a standard cab bench? Will a newer seat bolt in, front or rear? I may have a chance to pick up a brand new seat from a mid-late 90's standard cab, but don't want to get stuck with it if it won't fit. And waht about seat belts? My truck is a "Bonus Cab" so it never had anything behind the front seat.


Exhaust: 1990 crew cab, 4x4 with a 454. Has anyone used one of those "build your own duals" kits from summit (and a million other places)? I've done a little looking and am leery of them. Does any one know if Walker or anyone else still make the pipes so I could order factory style duals and just install that on my truck?

Re: Dumb exhaust question, and dumb seat question.

the front and back seats in a crew cab are the same bench seat.. walker does make pipes for a dual exhaust

I used the summit exhaust kit on my truck, no problems at all.

My truck is a 83 C20 with a 350. The kit I used was P/N WLK-89007 from Summit. I have Headman headers so I also had to order the Headman extenders.

Re: Dumb exhaust question, and dumb seat question.

Cool thanks. I have a k30. Whole lot less wiggle room with a transfer case and extra drive shaft. Prolly gonna just order up the walker parts and cross my fingers that they match up to my manifolds.

Not exactly...

The front bench doesn't fold forward, but the rear does to allow access to behind the seat.
The front bench has sliders (the same as a front bench in a Burb). The rear bench has solid mount brackets that move the seat back to allow for more leg room.

The 88-98('00) manual and power seats are fairly easy to mod to fit, you can shorten the steel mounting brackets to get the seats to sit @ the same height as stock. Or make your own mounting brackets.

Re: Dumb exhaust question, and dumb seat question.

Cool thanks. We got a late 90's truck that got smashed up a few months after getting the front seat redone, i gotta talk to the head honcho and see if I can buy the seat out of it before it goes to auction. If I can get it cheap enough I'll snag it to use for temporary.

Re: Dumb exhaust question, and dumb seat question.

Here is what a member here (OJOE) did.
95-00 crew seats.









I love it!!
I wanna do the same but gray cloth with a split bench in the front.

Several guys on here are using 2001-up seats (with built in belts), but you have to mod tge floor to get them to sit right.
