Crew cab/Suburban rear seats - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I think I found a Sub with a nice interior for parts. I believe the front seats will fit my crew cab, but not the back seat. Need some help to decide if it's worth buying. Is the crew cab's rear bench unique? I'm guessing the Suburban back seat won't work because of the way they fold down flat. Also, should door panels, power windows & locks, etc. from a late 80's Sub fit in my crew cab doors? Any difference between pre and post '81 models? Any other differences I should know? Thanks for any help!

Everything on the sub will fit the crew cab. The rear seat in a crew cab is a front seat with different mounting brackets, The sub, split fold seat will fit, though you have to make brackets for the locks. I'm in the process of putting fold seat in my crew cab. A suburban and the crew cabs, cab section are built on the same platform. Good luck, Tibbar.

Thanks for the info. Not a lot of crew cab guys here, huh? I'd like to see pics of your rear seat project if you have any.

Seat is being appolstered, will get some pics, when it comes back and I finish putting it in. Good luck. Tibbar
