bucket don't line up in cradle

[Jrainman]

If you are saying you have original c10 bucket seats ,this would be correct the c 10 bucket seats have a different hole pattern then a c10 bech seat. If you look close enough there might be indentions for the bucket seat bracket location, I have seen this on one cab that I aquired for parts. there is also the underside brace , but i dont remember if they have one specific for buckets , maybe someone else might chime in on that I am not that familar on the subject about the bracing.

No, actually I'm talking about the headlight bucket. The bucket doesn't sit in the radiator cradle right. This causes the light to sit too far to the right

Don't feel bad, I think most of us found out shortly after we got married that we flunked mind reading, I know I did big time as I thought he was talking about seats also. This is where pictures come in handy....

I too jumped on the seat bandwagon.
Definitely need some pictures on this one.
And is there any aftermarket sheet metal involved?
