A junkyard a few towns over has a 40/20/40 split bench they can sell me, but it wont last long.
Here are my 3 questions:
1) What will I need to do to put a 40/20/40 3 piece seat from an ext cab 150 into my 1996 f150 standard cab? The seat in the junkyard has 3 pieces, and a total of 8? bolts. I have a standard bench with 4 bolts. Will I have to drill 4 holes or 6, it looks like the front mounts sit further forward than they do on my truck.

2) Is the floor design at the back of the seat the same on a std cab as an ext cab?

3) My truck has a 5 spd and manuel shift 4x4. Are these things compatible, I am mostly thinking of when the counsel is folded down, will it clash with the shifter?

4) I lied, I have one more question. Is $175.00 too much for this seat, it looks like it is in good shape, and the color even matches.

Please help, I have not seen one of these last in the jy for more than 1-2 days and the clock is ticking.

 

All I can tell you is YES you will have to drill some holes and I think these trucks came with 40-20-40 at one point... If not, people have done it. Also, in my personal opinion 175 is a lot.

 

I was thinking 175 was a little high, but in my area, all the std cab trucks have a standerd bench, and all the ext and crew cab trucks have either standerd benches, or capt seats, so I don't see them very much, and they don't last in the junkyards either. In 3 years this is only the second one I have found.

I do have one more question though. I had a customer come to my shop with a f-450 box van std cab, and he had this seat, but it was on a benchseat frame (only 4 mounting bolts), did they realy make them that way or did he modify it? And if is was oem then did the seats still slide independently? (sadly I did not work on the truck, so I could not inspect it very long.

 

get them.

you will have to drill some.

 

I have a 95 standard cab that has 40 20 40.

 

I picked up four 40-20-40's for $60.00 each for three ane the other they gave my with my others parts. Three have the four bolt frame and one has the three part frame I'm putting the three part on the single base to have the right color and it will bolt right on.
The four bolt seat came out of a standard and crew cabs and the three came from a super cab.

 

Crewcabcoe, do you still have one on a single piece frame?
If so will you be willing to sell, I will pay shipping or just pick it up, and is it blue?
