These aren't mine, neither do I know who they are, or how/what, but I found 'em pretty nice.

1989 F450 Dump truck.


1990 F150 Custom
I like these, they go well with the interior

Here's what I had in my 95 F-150. They came from a 2003 Explorer Sport Trac. Leather with power and heat. Got the console off of eBay.

To the guys that mounted seats that aren't a direct bolt:

Did any of you mount the bottoms a little forward, so that the back can recline more? I usually sit with my seat back at ~100degrees and the bottom of the seat all the way down/back. Legs are totally outstretched. So far back I'm looking out the back window of my car. Going to a truck for DD is... and adjustment... haha. Thinking about mounting some seats a few inches forward for a little more mobility in the back.

The way that the bronco seats bolted in, I used the outside bottom bolt as the bolt to start with and I drilled the rest of the holes in. The way that the track ended up, It is further forward than the bench seat was. I had to put a washer in on the right of both seats to level them because they both leaned toward the passenger side using this method. It actually works out nice because the seats can slide on a further track than the bench seat did too, so i can adjust it however I like.

They were pretty easy to put in. I just had to bend the mounting bracket a little to match the contour of the floor, drill holes, and bolt them in. Wiring them for the power and heat took longer than mounting them. I think 05 Sport Trac was the newer body style, so the seats might be completely different than these. I'm sure you could make them work though.

No, I have no idea what it came out of. I couldn't even find any part numbers on it or anything that would indicate who the manufacturer was.

No, I think they only had gray or tan interior.

I swapped my buddy's '93 bench (mine is an '87) with adjustable head rests and fold down arm rest, also has lumbar support but I havent been able to hook it up yet. its a direct bolt up to the old one (that I cant find any pics of) and it sits higher than the old one, but sits closer to the steering wheel I think.

I've thought about some SuperDuty seats in my truck. What does it take to get them in?
