Seat bracket interchange between Blazer and Suburban.

I've posted this in the Blazer forum, no answers as of yet, but maybe the other way around will work so...

I need to order seat brackets for my Recaros, a company, Wedge Engineering makes them but offers what seems like conflicting fit data. They offer 63-72 Suburban bucket brackets and 71-80 Blazer brackets. Of course my project is a 70 Jimmy. My assumption is that all 69-72 Jimmy/Blazers have the mounting points in the same place. When I talked to them they claimed GMCs and Chevys were different and I might need the Suburban brackets instead, as one customer they had, ordered the Blazer brackets for a Jimmy and they didn't fit, this sounds like nonsense to me. What I think is more likely is that the Suburban brackets are the right ones in all cases, and the Blazer brackets are for *73*-80. I don't know that for sure, just a hunch, just wondering if anyone has ever bolted Suburban seats into a Blazer or visa versa?

Re: Seat bracket interchange between Blazer and Suburban.

I've owned a Jimmy and I've owned a Suburban but never at the same time.

Sorry

Wish I could help, but my knowledge of Blazers is almost nil.

Re: Seat bracket interchange between Blazer and Suburban.

Thanks guys, I knew it was more of a long shot in the Suburban forum, but I figured it was worth a shot. I got no useful answers in the Blazer forum, not even sure they understood the question.
