I'm looking for bench seat suggestions for my '48. The original seat riser or base was previously cut out. Does anyone know of any other make/model seats which fit well in the AD trucks?

I removed my riser in my AD as well. I welded in 1” square tubing along the floorboard as a spacer, drilled some holes, and installed 88-93 Chevy/gmc bench seats. They are wider than stock and nearly touch the doors on both sides, but they give tons of head room, leg room, are easily adjustable and sit at the perfect “hang your elbow out the window as you cruise” height.

I got my seat for $50. Deep steam cleaned for $50. Very happy with it.
