Hey Guys, i picked up some tan/gold bucket seats from a oldsmobile sillhouette premium van. Would you guys have pictures of the interiors of your trucks to give me some ideas. I am wondering how to make the seats look good in a blue truck and what to change my interior color too.

 

ive got tan bucket seats in my EB F150 if you wanna see that. it came stock that way. its the 40-20-40 seat. let me know and ill get a picture

 

Yea that would be great! im painting my truck kona blue metallic, its a 2011 mustang color. And i want to repaint all my interior to a tan/gold

 

 

Would you know if those 40-20-40 seats are compatable in 87-91's? I am wanting to go to those seats but dont want to drill more holes than needed

 

thumper, to put them in a truck that has a bench seat your going to have to drill holes. or find a way to mount the bucket seats on a bench seat frame

 

yea, im sure you would have to drill some holes to make it work. i think it would be worth the time though to do the swap. i had a f150 with a bench seat and i like this seat 100x better

 

I drilled my cab floor to move the 40-20-40 seat in there in place of the original bench. Not hard. Took two people for lifting. Seat belt set up is slightly out of alignment but the original belts seem to work fine. I put good backing behind new bolt heads for seat legs since the floor is not very heavy gage metal. I think in an accident it is really the seat belt mounts that matter.

My 93 F150 XLT had the bench with solid back/ built in armrest. Then i found the same style seat as Guitarist41991 and it bolted right up. No modifications necessary.

thanks. I'm a fan

 

x2.....

 

Years ago I found a near-mint, upside down 89 Chrysler minivan in the junkyard, with an equally mint interior. I bought the bucket seats.

Since my truck had a bench seat, I welded a steel frame to replace the bench seat, welded on eight tabs that lined up with the Chrysler seats, then bolted the Chrysler seats to the frame.

I did it this way because the passenger side Chrysler seat didn't have slides... it was fixed in 1989. So, using the Ford bench seat slides, I can move both Chrysler seats forward and back as if they were one, and I can move the driver Chrysler seat independently on top of that.

I can snap a few pictures if you want.

 

The 94-97 40-20-40 will bolt right into a 80-97 truck. NO DRILLING.
The ONLY catch is... the 40-20-40 has to come from a reg cab or crew cab. SUPERCAB brackets are different.

Wrong, see above
