I landed these seats off ebay, Man I love these seats. All I have left now is to finish up my power steering, and I am ready for body work and paint.

Chevysdominate · 10-28-2007, 08:01 PM

Looks nice!

How much work was it to fit the seats?

1966gmc · 10-28-2007, 08:17 PM

Thats pretty badass looking man.Good job.Im also wondering how hard the install was

04Xrider · 10-28-2007, 08:27 PM

They were a piece of cake to install. The center seat fit perfect over the hump. And the outer seats just sat nice and flush beside it. I will say if the bottom rails were any wider, they would go past the down curve of the floorboard, but they went right to the edge for a flush fit. I used 3/8 bolts and under the floorboards, I used flat washers with lock washers.

Stepside65 · 10-28-2007, 09:00 PM

Me like. What year did those come out of?

Edit: Nevermind. I am an idiot that didn't pay enough attention

You must still be high from getting your "new" stepside bed. The title says 2006...

I think those seats with the integrated seat belts come out of all 99 and ups.

I'm glad to FINALLY see the seats I covet so much recently put into one of our trucks. I'll get some one day when I can find them REASONABLY priced!

I think your right. When I was looking for seats, I seen the same style from a 1999 silverado.

SkylineNXS · 10-28-2007, 10:14 PM

If i remember correctly, in early threads here, members recommended that the floor should really be reinforced under the seats, because if ur in an accident, the seats will pull through the floor. You might wanna search for other threads on this issue...

I did see that thread. And I am not to worried about it for several reasons. I have used pretty good size flat washers on the under side, that alone would take a hugh force to pull them through. Second, the stock seat belts had two attachment points, and if you had three people in the truck, the center person shared one of those. The seats have four attachments each for a total of 12 bolts. That is considerably more then the 1,1/2 or two (depending on passengers)That the stock belts used. Third, I am only 140 lbs, a wet noodle could just about secure me

SkylineNXS · 10-28-2007, 11:58 PM

lol, good poitn, thats cool. Ive also wanted these seats, but have not yet gone out to find any, look really nice in there, is the "ride height" about the same as with the bench?

Yes they seem to be the same height, but a little more comfy.

littlee_domn8r · 10-29-2007, 03:58 PM

Nice seats! If you don't mind my asking, How much did they set you back?

They were a little steep! $520.00 plus shipping. The sad thing was, I just missed another set by 10 minutes, from the same seller, same year, color, and they were electric. They went for $250.00. I would have bought them, but the ones I got are in keeping with my plan to have nice upgrades, but keeping it simple.

Real_McCoy · 10-30-2007, 12:28 AM

These are the seats I am going to install someday. I found a set at a local salvage yard for $150. I was told that the driver's side had a small tear in it. They had several sets for under $500. Run a search on http://www.car-parts.com. This seat style is in all Chevy/GMC trucks since '99.

What kind of leg room is left (at 140 lbs I bet plenty)? Is the tank still in the cab or is it relocated?

Thanks for sharing.

pat66 · 10-30-2007, 05:03 AM

They look great.have a aset of electric's yet to be installed.Still trying to figure out the wireing

Well then these seats might be a problem for me, my tank has NOT been relocated and I'm 6'5" 275lbs

Guess I'll need to move the tank before I get 'em.

WOW! Yes in all honesty, your knees would probably be into the steering wheel. These seats are about 4 inches thicker then the stock seats. And I do think they would pose some leg room issues with anyone over 6'.

magsnubby · 10-30-2007, 04:15 PM

My '01 GMC had the same seats. I always wondered how they would work in my '71 Cheyenne.

Now 'im wondering how they would work in my '58 step side.

Yeah, and on top of that I have to shift gears. Guess I'll roll with the racing seats a while longer....

Iron-Butt · 10-30-2007, 05:56 PM

looks good

kris's66lwb · 10-30-2007, 07:35 PM

any one know where i can pick out a set of thease for cheep in san deigo

orange66fleet · 11-07-2007, 11:20 AM

I just found a set of seats out of a wrecked 2001 2500 silverado, the only difference is the center seat does not fold down, but it does have the much needed cup holders. The also have the seat belt problem fixed at the same time. $75 and I pulled them out myself in 15 minutes. I found the post in the parts section 99 and up chevy trucks. I threw them in and they fit like a glove and they feel good too. I will get some pictures soon. The real good thing was I looked at the prices of seat belts and they were expensive and this is a great alternitive.

Congrtats on your new seat. You got a steal. These seats are really nice considering the seatbelt laws and all. Just pull the shoulder harness down and click, you are snug as a bug in a rug

Lane · 11-07-2007, 12:00 PM

I like the old school bench look, but those seats look really good in there - and having seatbelts is a nice bonus... hhmmmm.
