Installed new Seats Today....Didnt notice something until now! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just got my new seats installed into my Blazer tonight.

Not only do they sit around 3-4" too low, but they seat cover designs do not match!

Why can't anything ever go right for me? I feel like a retard for not noticing this now! I should have looked closer since I pulled these out of two different late model Chevy trucks.

I think I will take them out until I can get some square tubing made to go under the seat brackets.

Ohh and to beat all, the d*mn lumbar is as tight as it could go, so the lower part of the seat back is pushed way out into my back when I set in them.

Im just glad I didnt pay a whole lot for them.

Not only is the pattern different on of them is missing an arm rest...

You can order new skins for them from companies like Katzskin. They will match then...

I called the junkyard that I got them at and asked if I could bring them back and buy another set that they had that they wanted $200 for the pair. I believe they were in a lot better shape too. I paid $150 for this pair.

I just cant make my mind up if I want to wire the seats up to make them fully power or just get some manual tracks as well.
