Should be a bolt-in unless they're the pedestal/Captains chair-type seats. I believe the floor pans are pretty much the same. Not sure, but you may have to drill a couple of holes in your floor pan for the inside mounting bolts on each seat assembly. Take a look in my gallery and you'll see what the Explorer seats look like in the Bronco.

Bucket seats from a Ford Bronco? ugh why even bother, just throw them away like they were ment to be. If you wanted bucket seats you should have gotten them from a Chevy or Dodge, or better yet just buy a Chevy or Dodge. Can't go wrong there, Fords suck anyway

Why did you even bother posting sternal2000 if you aren't even helping? Anyway, enough with the retard....
The seats should be a direct swap but just do what he said above...might have to drill but no biggy.

Appartently you have never even done this before so before you start calling people names, I'd make sure you knew what you were talking about about. The mounting holes on the floor are the same, but you will have to drill for the inner one, the ones near the center console. You would also have to get new seat mounts for the passanger side if you wanted it to side back and forth since the one from the bronco only lets it tilt. If you have anymore questions just let me know, instead of going to this "know-it-all crazed Ford guys". And i still think Fords are POS ;-)

That's funny, because my seat's which were directly swapped from a 95 Bronco were a direct swap. In his case if he's going from a bench seat to the bronco buckets then there should be some drilling and braket relocation involved. I just went from 40/20/40 seats to removing the center seat/console to Bronco buckets w/armrest.

Yea, he has a bench seat in there now, that's why I said he had to drill for the 4 new holes he needs. Oh, did I forget to mention that I gave him those seats and he's my best friend, I guess I should have said that....

I was looking through a Chiltons about the 90 F-150 thinking about doing pretty much the same thing. The bench seats use less attachment points than the buckets. I don't think there are the extra mounting points for buckets.
If you decide to install your own and drill some holes, make sure you think about how you're doing it. A close encounter at speed with another vehicle could make poorly mounted seats into a airplane with really bad landing gear.
