Question about seat tracks

[onebigjohn]

I figured I'd ask here...Are 73-78 blazer Drivers side bucket seat track the same as 67-72 Truck drivers side bucket seat track?

I tried to make that as confusing as possible...
I thought Truck guys would know before the Blazer/Jimmy crowd would.

I'm trying to piece together a set of buckets for my 72

All the square blazers i have seen have a "fixed" position passenger side seat.
blazers have a spring loaded tilt forward latch mech.
If you can find early square body truck low back seats or high backs they will have pass side sliders but still won't bolt too the floor in a 67-72 correctly.
I have a set of blazer buckets that i tried using a set of blazer driver side sliders and mounts on the passenger side. With a few mods It looks like it might work.
If i remember they practically bolted on but didn't have weld nuts in the "extra" holes they mounted too.
I also think I have two different yr. Mount/sliders.
I was thinking on trying to peel the upper covers off and cutting down the seat back frames too make them low back seats as I don't like seeing the tops through the back window.
I started doing this for my k until I got a bench for it.
But im really still up in the air on it all.

Oh and no the drivers sides are mounts are differnt im thinking because of the differnt floor pans.

73-78 are taller. They look the same as 69-72 ones. Just a couple inches taller. I have cut them down before to make them work.

Also bench seat sliders can be modified to become bucket seat tracks
