Hi all. I want to put a bench seat back in my 1988 F-150 4x4 regular cab XLT Lariat (the previous owner put some captain's chairs w/console in). The current seats wobble, and my wife wants the bench back. I'm looking on craigslist, ebay, and local junk yards, but no luck yet. Do I have to get same year, or are there other options?

 

Any seat from 80 through 96 f150 - f250 - f350 and 97 f250 - f350 for sure.. There are probably others but these are on the "for sure" list..





BTW....... Welcome to FTE

 

Thanks! That widens things up quite nicely!

 

where are you from? Im putting seats from a bronco in my truck tomoro and my truck has a bench seat thats pretty mint. The only thing is that the black plastic panel behind the seat is gone.

 

I'm in Northern Colorado (Wellington area).

 

I see, I'm in the dead center of Wisconsin. I'm sure you could get a seat from just about any truck in a "pull a part" in your area.

 

What are your buckets like? I'm looking for buckets & a console. I'm in the foothills SW of Denver...

 

I have a 89. and I want a bench seat out of a 92-96 body style, with the fold down console.

 

The correct XLT bench seat for your truck will be one like this I installed in my '89 Custom F150, from a '90 XLT Lariat.

 

That's a nice looking seat, IDIDieselJohn. I have one just like that in the exact same color in my 1985 F150.

I have experienced both the 1987 - 1991 Lariat style bench seat, and the two different 1992 - 1996 XLT bench seat styles, and I personally think the 1987 - 1991 Lariat style (pictured above) was the most comfortable bench seat.

 

I agree! 87-91 XLT benchs are the most comfortable ones!


But the early 80's XLT seats were the best looking
