Have broken springs in my 200 F-250XL bench seat. Truck is in Hawaii. Upholsery shops here on my Island won't touch it. Ship a new seat in from the dealer, more than Truck is worth. Before taking it a part sure could use some advice on how to fix the springs, repadding and seat covering.
Thanks

 

It all depends on how much you can afford to spend. Buy another one on fleabay or buy some after market replacement.

 

Recovering or stripping an old school bench seat is pretty easy. I did the bench on my 74' F-100 several years ago. The new seats use plastic clips which make it easier to put back together. They may still use some hog rings, I'm not sure.

I would carefully take the seat cover off and the foam off down to the bare frame. A good welder can easily TIG weld the spring ends back together in short order. Seat springs usually arn't that hard so they should hold for a while without snapping.

I do not see the big deal about your seat why an upolstry shop couldn't fix it for you.

Reassemble the seat in the order you took it apart in.
