I have been looking at my seat back and thinking about the same thing. I have another seat that I can use for the frame parts to make the bucket but have not come up with how to make it pivot foward. I would like to have a flip down arm rest my DD a Dodge Ram has a real nice one but it's to thick. If you find a thread about this let me know.

Hey farmer, I am hoping somebody comes forward that knows more about this or can lead me in the right direction. I think I'll post something in the other section to see if I get a response over there. What I am thinking, though, is taking the bench seat and cutting the middle out and welding the 2 ends back together to make 1 bucket seat. Of course I'll have to get another bench for 2nd seat but if it works I think it would be worth it.

I finally got a little work done on the truck this weekend. I got my new to me passengers side vent cover welded on and started the task of drilling out the spot welds on the passenger rocker. The rocker itself is good and I will be reusing it but I need to patch a small section of the outer front of the floor and I also want to inspect the inner rocker. I will also be patching the kick panel while I'm at it.
I had to get ready for work and didn't have time to post any pics, but I'll try to get some up soon. Just thought I'd better post something. I had to go to page 3 to find my thread.

Here are the pics of my vent cover replacement and the passenger side outer rocker panel removal. It looks like I'll have to replace the bottom of the door pillar, a section of the outer floor, and the lower kick panel. The inner and outer rocker panels are good so I won't have to mess around with an ill fitting aftermarket outer rocker. As much as I've read about problems with these, I'm happy.

Here are a couple more after I hit them with the wire wheel for closer inspection.
