Seat Conversion?
I have a 96 single cab f-350 with the single 4 bolt bench seat, I recently went to pick and pull and found some 40/20/40 seats out of a 1999 for f250 super duty... how do I get these in my truck with out custom fabing spacers?

Then you wouldn't mind giving up a couple of them for my passenger seat, right? I only need two of them.

Wait, is that front seats or rear??? I need front. That looks like they sit way too low to be front seats. Besides, if it is front, then that won't work for me with that pan setup. I need the center area clear for the console.

and get ready for some fabrication then, because the only ones that had seperate brackets for each seat and center were in extended cabs and broncos, which have an entirely differnt floor contour than the reg cabs and crew cabs, and since you have a regcab, your a few fries short of a happy meal, good luck, and note that if and when you drill hole in floor and mount the seats, reinforce the floor, and not just some big washers, like weld or bolt in a support like the factory mounts, or else you can count on the seats ripping through the floor if ya ever wreck, which doesnt sound enticing to me

No, I do have the extended cab, but not superduty. Do you think the Bronco seats would fit without modifications into the F250 I have (IE they have the same floorpan or bolt layouts)? I have a feeling I'm still going to be hungry for fries after all the work I think I'm going to have to do to get this seat to go in properly. I have a pair of risers that came with the seat I bought from a junk yard. I think I'm going to just cut off the bottoms of them and recreate new 'feet' that line up with the holes I already have in the floor.
if you find bronco or extended cab seat brackets, you can mount the superduty seats to those(if they line up,,, not too sure if they will) and then mount the obs seat brackets to the factory mounts in the floor

I would get the 3 pice seat pans from a 94-97 super cab and mount the SD seats to them. That way they will bolt in and not be an abortion. Just a FYI, SD seats do NOT side forward to access the rear like OBS seats do
