I took your advice and bought set from Ken, excellent products. Got them installed and ready
for test fit in the truck in a few days. Hope I dont have anything mounted backwards.
I did have to move mounting hole on the passenger seat from 5" to 3.75" just as you said.
I think 73-74 seats are 5" and mine are 75-76 seats and need 3.75".
I checked with Ken first, as of now he does not have the new brackets to eliminate this issue.
Also, got the restored slider brackets from TKCR, beautiful work.
Then will need to get Ken's center supports installed/welded in place.
