Sounds like a seat from a newer truck, say 88-96 or so..... My 94 had the same type item.

A closer look and I see the fold-down center armrest. Screams of a high trim level, later model.
I want one identical to it, for my red truck.....

That seat is from a 92-97. They were the only years to get the seat console. I have a 96 seat in my 86

Thanks for the clarification. I need a new seat, and I know what I'd like to get, so this helps me narrow my search.

87-91 had the optional fip down arm rest though if that was what you were looking for. you can add the console.

Yep, that's the one. I've been pleased.
