Seat covers.. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just bought a 98 Z71..the interior is in good shape except the drivers side leather looks like a badger has been driving it...Not thrilled about spending 1000 to re-leather...Best place to find a cover or replacement?

I would just run some covers from Wally-World until I could find a cheap, local replacement. Salvage seats online seem to be pretty steep; I would be hunting Craigslist and local yards.

There are a few sellers on sleazebay that have good prices. Best I've found runs just short of $400 for bottom and back in leather. I need new ones on my driver's side, but my butt still treats mine like a badger, so I'm gonna hold off as long as I can.

Check out CKresto.com

I got a recovered a set of seats in my livingroom using one of their kits.
The brand was distinctive industries that made it.
These seats were tan before & I order the material without headrests.

BTTT -

Jwall,
I just picked up a pair of seats like yours. Would you happen to have a part number for those covers? Did you have to call and request no headrests from ckresto?

I'm putting these in my 88'. What model trucks were equipped with this style?

Thanks for your help.

88K2500 · 04-27-2010, 03:28 PM

Wait, I think I just found them. I guess they call this a 40/20/40?? 95-98 year model?

jb1016 · 04-27-2010, 04:57 PM

I don't think that's a 40/20/40...

Pretty sure the pic shows bucket seats. The 50/50 and such refer to bench seats.

BigBlocksRule · 04-27-2010, 08:25 PM

^ Pretty sure he's right.

I called and ordered mine for the bucket seats only. When I ordered I requested they did not punch holes in the top for the headrests.

The seats above are out of a 98 Tahoe. Which are the same as the trucks with bucket seats from 95-98.
