The panel seats are two one-person "bucket" seats, and the Suburban seats are a two-person driver/passenger seat and a one-person passenger seat.

He said if anyone can provide a panel truck seat riser rusty or not,he'll reproduce them as well. I'm not selling anything here,but trying to help those who have a need for them.
Thanks,Tim

The driver's side seat base support a seat that slides front-and-back. I think that seat base looks like this. The passenger side does not slide, but it tips forward to allow access to the rear from the passenger door. I think that seat base looks like this. Maybe someone will confirm/correct? | | | | | Joined: Aug 2015 Posts: 1 Moderated | | Moderated Joined: Aug 2015 Posts: 1 | I'm new to this forum and can't seem to find the info for the California guy you mentioned who's making the seat risers. Can you re-post his info here? I'm actually looking for a riser for a 53 pickup.
