1) Where is a good place for interior parts??
2)I wish to put high bucket seats in. Which fit?
3) I heard a 88 or above silverado has a lot of cross over parts is this true?
Working on body, engine is a beast. Can't wait. Thanks guys..

Do a side by Side compare. http://truckandcarshop.com/ | | | | | Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 403 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 403 | First of all measure your orginal seat then if you are goung to use buckets I would recommend going to a wrecking yard and look around for some you like that will fit. My seat came out of a 89 silverado and the same seat is in the Suburban too.

Measure the height also so you dont have to build a adapter. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 188 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 188 | And look at the seat back angle too. Most modern highback seats have a more sloped back angle. To fit them in means the bottom has to fit more towards the pedals. Cramps your leg room. And watch for that big steering wheel interference too. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 9 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 9 | what would be the best high back seat to put in??? | | |
