Rear seat support

[RckyMntnKng]

Guys

I picked up an original bench seat to go in my Jimmy, just needs the fabric re-done

I need the frame that the seat mounts to (Between seat and bed)

Anyone know where I can find something like this.....dont see it on LMC or Brothers?

For what is worth, I have had no luck finding the cargo area bench seat stuff either.

I posted a few days ago for ideas on the front mounting clips for that seat. Someone mentioned e-bay for around $50. That is expensive - so I am continuing digging through my parts boxes looking.

The front mounting clips tend to go in the $50-65 range. I've seen them as high as $90. There was a board member making them out of blocks of aluminum several years back but I haven't seen him around in a few years.

As for the "legs", you can post a "wanted to buy" listing on the board and I'm sure someone will have what you are looking for. They are the same as the suburban, but I'm not sure if it is the 2nd row or 3rd row seat. No repops are being made.

Not too familiar with Blazer seat parts, but I found this for you, look at the picture & see if it has the brackets for the back also.

71,

Those are for the front buckets, cool deal though

For the rear seat also try Burb 3rd row parts

Yep, just gotta pay the fee and they can post away (I didn't say there weren't a few steps first.)

Looks like I need to become a supporter of this great site!

Just for my own information.....What holds your original rear set to the bed in your Jimmys/Blazers?

My seat has "L" type brackets, but they dont line up with the factory holes.....I was told it was a stock seat from a 71 jimmy.

Just confused on what I even need to look for...I was thinking there was some kind of assembly between the seat and tub that I must be missing. Otherwise I just have the wrong brackets....like from a Sub or something

Thanks

I've tried to attach some photos that show the brakets. In the back there are 2 or 4 legs (depending on your truck). In the front, there are tubes that rest on the floor and then there are metal "clamp" that bolt down to the floor. The front pieces tend to get lost easy so they sell for a premium. Sorry, I don't have any photos of them but hopefully someone else will.

Bouncy,

Thanks so much for the Pics...that helps tremendously.

I have four rear holes in my bed, and only 2 brackets on the seat.....

I need to be looking for a set that matches a 4-bracket rear!

Thanks again
Josh

Found this today, just thought I'd pass it on. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/69-72...QQcmdZViewItem

Ahh cool.... thank you.

My '72 has 4 holes in the floor, but only two legs on the seat and it is completely stock. The two center holes have seat belt bolts in them. Here's a pic of the back of my seat.

Yeppers, those hold the front tubes down, and the rear legs just bolt down.
That seller used to be a active member here, always has very nice parts.

Pic one has Blazer Rear legs (Top Row)
Also Burb 2nd row rear legs (Left Side)
& Blazer front tube hold downs (Btm Row)

Pic two shows the Blazer front tubes

Blazers came with several different configured rear seats---some with 4 rear mounts, some with seat belts bolted to the rear mounts, some with the outer belts mounted to the side bolts of the seat. There is a heavy duty bracket under the floor to brace the rear seat mounts in case of an accident. there are 4 holes in the floors and in this bracket for the rear seat mounts.

Good addition Huck.

Rcky, use the "correct" seat mounts and mounting position in the truck, otherwise your just tempting fate.

Throw out the shade-tree mounts and clamps that you've described that's in there currently and make it right.

Another pic of the front clips for ya.

[RckyMntnKng]

Thanks Gentlemen...appreciate all your help.

Ive got a line on some good stock parts to attach my seat.

Will post pics after I get the new fabric and mounts done

Probably a day too late but, if you still need anything, give me a call.
