Can anyone recommend a seat that will fit with the least amount of fabrication? Would like to use a split bench, maybe something with a folding center arm rest.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Your not going find any bolt in parts, you'll have to fab the floor/brackets. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2009 Posts: 2,201 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2009 Posts: 2,201 | I heard a rumor that the third seat from 73-90 suburbans is a good fit. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | .... along with the 2003 or 4 Buick Lesabre...along with seats from a 2000- ?? Silverado pickup. Both have seat belts built into the seats and with the buick you can get electric and even a seat warmer. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,074 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,074 | My front 2002 Silverado front buckets would be super in your truck. And they have the seat belts built into the seat, an extended cab.
