Jump Seats in a '70 C-10? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Has anyone ever seen "jump seats" in one of our trucks. You know, the fold-down style in the back of older (barely) short extended cabs?

Odd , I know. But I'm loving how big the cab is with the bench seat out. I'm usually riding around with only me & my 3 dogs or random junk.

Anyone have any pics?

so what? you want to take out the bench and put in the little jump seats to sit on?

I think it would be real uncomfortable..and plus, if your tank is in the cab, hanging them on the back of the cab might get tricky.

you might want to think about like a 60/40 folding rear seat out of a yukon or something...they are decently comfy, and you fold 60% down flat for more room..

I have dual buckets with a center jump seat. Pretty much any seat out of a GM truck will work fine, they all mount with a flat floor pan so making new holes is easy business.

I was thinking of putting in a nice bucket seat for me & a jumpseat for the occasional passenger.

The gas tank would definately be soemthing to deal with.
