My Chevy is part Dodge now - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

No, I don't have a Cummins, although I want one. It's my new to me rear seats. I picked up the front and back seats out of a 2004 Dodge quad cab for $40. I wasn't sure if I'd use them but it was too good a deal to pass on. The drivers side had a small hole in the bolster. Originally I was thinking of putting the rear seats in the dually, but the more I thought about it, the better, I thought, the front seats out of the Dodge would look in the back of the dually. I’d like to get the seats covered in a matching saddle at some point down the road.
I stuck a larger tranny cooler on, as well as fabbing up a 10" fan behind it with a Derale 165* - 180* switch. It necessitated carving the grille out pretty thin to get the fan and cooler sitting behind it, thin enough that and more grinding and it would have been air. While it was off I painted the yellow bowtie as it was in pretty rough shape. It’s the same metallic orange as the truck, with 4 coats of pearl as well. The pics don’t do it justice as it just glows in the sunlight. I’ll probably break down and pop for a repo eventually, but it will make do for now.
The next project I gotta start thinking about is the a\c ‘cause the 95 degree days are killing me.

Cheers,

Nice seats! I've got the same ones in my Longhorn. Sweet emblem as well!

Seats look pretty at home in there and that emblem looks awesome btw.

Aw darnit, I thought I'd be the first. Maybe the first in the backseat

Yep. I've been trying to find some Laramie ones with no luck. I think I'll just have mine recovered some day.

Like this. I sold this Dodge in June.

Yep. Those are the same as my 05 were. They were pretty comfy.
