2017 king ranch seat covers.

Just purchased a king ranch f350 drw and might I say. Mighty fine truck. Would like to protect these gorgeous seats with some really nice seat covers. Has anyone found which ones fit and look the best?

Enjoy them

Why not enjoy the beautiful seats that come with your truck? Cover them when it comes time to sell or trade.

I would love to just enjoy them. But I bought it to be a work truck/personal truck. Use the seat covers while working then take them off when I'm not.

That makes sense. Hopefully you can find a nice set to meet your needs.

Given this I would say carhart is a good choice.

I ordered a set of Carhartt covers today. We’ll see how they work out.

I was looking at these earlier today, watched a video on the install. Seems like you have to remove the rear center seat belts to install/remove. Is this the case or have you found a way around that? I'm looking for higher end covers that are easily removable, the wife's 100lb boxer has white hair and sheds twice a year, 6 months in the fall and 6 months in the spring.

Those seats are meant to be used. Use a good leather conditioner and clean them a few times a year and they'll hold up well. Plus if you have KR with the cooled seats, they won't work all that well with a cover, if at all.

This reminds me of old ladies that cover their couches with weird plastic to save the couch...but then they have a plastic couch for 10 years.

Just use the seats as they were intended. If they ever get worn out (I highly doubt it) you can purchase some new leather skins to replace them.

I should've stated that I only put on front seat covers as we have no children at home and no pets that ride in the back seat . Let us know how difficult the rears is to put on if you decide to go with Carrhart .

I remember the original king ranch seats and they were very durable. Stained easily and discolored like crazy but held up well against cracks rips and tears. These new king ranch seats however remind me of a high end car with very delicate seats. Im not to worried about the drivers seat. Its my crew messing up all the other seats that I have an issue with. I know how to get in and out of a truck. My crew on the other hand slides on the seats and drag their azz across them which wears out the corner.

I thought we were not supposed to cover seats that contained airbags?...I have seen this disclaimer on various sets of covers through the years.

The Carhartt covers are made to work with the airbags. Other types, I’m not sure.
