Seats

Ok I've got a 96 f250 extended cab and I want to take the bench seat out and put some bucket seats out of a newer truck. Anybody know what years might fit with the least modification? Any suggestions are welcome.

Not true "buckets", but 40/20/40 seat out of another EC OBS would be a direct bolt-in.

This is something I want to do too. I've been looking at some King Ranch seats but in CO, they want a grand for front and a grand for the rear. I'd rather put that kinda money into the motor.

Bucket seats from a '92-'96 Bronco are direct bolt ins for the EC trucks. Some of the EC trucks came with bucket seats and a center console just like the Broncos. Either of those will bolt right up with no modification. Another option would be find a 40/20/40 seat and leave the center jump seat out, leaving you with bucket seats. I did this on my EC.
